Scott,

Just wanted to share this with you. I once bought a dozen or so wild caught radiateds from an importer and I had never dealt with anything soo nasty in my life. Plus I had put them about 4 per sweater box and once the lid was lifted, they went in all directions soo fast you'd almost miss them. I had to start grabbing tails and swing them because the were quite smart and high strung that they knew to climb back up towards their tail and bite whomever was hold them so imagine having 4-6 snakes in your hands by yourself and all of them racing back up to bite you and trying to put them back in the sweater box. Boy, quite entertaining to say the least..... I've had CH babies that would flair up, but nothing like these wildcaughts. Man, never again!!!!!

Have fun!!!
Barry
