Nasty BHP

[FAY]

I need to get an eye scale off a nasty BHP.

As they don't seem to have a defined head as such, their head will just slip through your hands.

Any tips on how to secure this one so I can do this?

My advice is very carefully lol.

You can hold them securely without them slipping through your hand.

This was suggested in a similar thread today. Get a pillowcase or its snake bag soak it in warm water put bag in snake tup or container then put cranky bugger inside. Leave lid off container though, remove him or oven for ventilation and fresh air for 5 min every 15min for an hour then remove him from the bag completely and put back in tank. It should just slip off. Don’t make bag too tight though so he can move around.
