Re: Thoughts on...

Feeding tanks are just stressful for the snake and unnecessary, and hook/tap training works for almost all species.

I tap train all my snakes. It seems to work out well. We have a rescue that I think would benefit from hook training too. I think it's effective and helps your interaction with the animals you're trying to train
