I've noticed that with harmless snakes.Not so much with rattlesnakes which I find more than any other kind of snake.If I'm going to move them I find a long stick and pick them up that way.Rattlers are downright onry.
Tigger was caught in the wild and was striking and dangerous at first, but I have found most snakes relax if you relax. after a while they don't feel like they are in danger they become docile.
I've noticed in the wild that bigger older snakes are docile around wombats and kangaroos, anything that doesn't want to kill and eat the snake, the snake will get on with fine.
I was going to do a fruit bat video but found it was too hard to get a permit to film one, too much red tape. maybe I could film from a distance? most states don't mind if you are a long way away from them.
solar powered rat catcher! ...love it! killer enclosure. takes a genius to think of something like that. was this old footage, or does your beard grow that fast?
5*s Great looking Tiger Snake!!! Face looks a lot like a cobras straight on but one fine looking species. Beautiful enclosure and very creative. That is SO true bill and glad you stressed the value snakes have to our environment. They unlike humans only kill to eat and defend themselves. I TOTALLY discourage live feedings because there is no reason to risk a snakes health to eat.
Beautiful snake matey!
Am new to snake keeping. Got some vids of my first snake uploaded here.
Not as impressive as tigger, but all snakes are beautiful in my opinion.
Keep the vids coming mate. 5stars

That snake is about the same age as my little brother.I had no clue snakes could live to be that old.
What amazes me is how docile that one seems.

For somre reason I had flash backs of a old TV series featuring Harry Butler, I think it was called In The Wild, I may be totally wrong.

Astroboy had a huge influence on me but I never ended up like him, maybe more like Dr Elephant.

I really love fruit bats/flying foxes.
I was going to do a fruit bat video but found it was too hard to get a permit to film one, too much red tape. maybe I could film from a distance? most states don't mind if you are a long way away from them.

That snake enclosure is really cool. I like the shed look and the wood pile.
;)
Nice bit about feeding frozen / thawed as well.
