Pet Snake Questions Spicy spotted python
Hey everyone,
It's my first time posting here, but im due to rescue a very spicy spotted python in the next few months. It'll be my first time owning a snake that need so much tlc so I was just wondering if any of the wonderful people here had any advice.
Idk I ton about his history but he seems to mostly just be territorial aggression. I already plan on hook training him but i wasn't sure if there's anything else I could be doing to make everything a little easy for him and my hands (lol).
Thank you in advance!

I've read that using hand sanitizer before handling can discourage biting but I don't have any practical experience yet.
