Well after the fiasco this morning I went about my usual routine of checkin on everyone. While doing this I checked in on my baby 2yr old Cottonmouth "v3n0m". I named him after my friend Stacey who's stage name is "v3n0m" - hes an up an comming horrorcore rapper Wink. So anyway since I have it open an V3n0m was out in the open I went ahead an got some nice pics of him. Since my other attemps had failed.

Sounds like tubing the copperhead would have been easier, safer for you and alot les stressful on the snake. Do you have any tubes? Marty
