Well first off you need a better viv or a lock or something. if it's gonna keep escaping, also put in LOTS of daily handling to try and calm it. How big is it at the moment?

You've got to try and tame it. They have a reputation for being snappy, but they're supposed to be easier to tame the Greens. Good luck and don't give up.

I've heard greens are easier to tame. Never tried to tame either personally though. A friend had a mental yellow, I told him he'd never tame it and he tried but never did LOL.

I heard that Yellows are easier to tame, but i've never looked after either aswell. I guess it depends on the individual snakes. They're both monsters (in a good way) in my opinion!!

Yeah like always it come's down to the individual animal's temperament. They are monstrous, impressive but not for me.

Some pics would be nice

wear it out. take all the fight out of it. throw all that "i might stress it" stuff out the window. make it submit and want to flee not defend itself. get it past the defensive stuff...to the next level where it just wants to go home.. believe me. (you can't let it keep it's attitude...dominate it) it won't hurt it.
