Repto Black Snake Hook 90cm

The Repto Black Snake Hook 90cm is a long-handled snake handling tool designed to provide additional reach and control when moving or managing snakes without using your hands directly.

At 90cm long, this is the larger of the two Repto Snake Hooks and provides considerably more working distance between the keeper and the animal. It can be particularly useful when dealing with defensive or unpredictable snakes, as well as during enclosure maintenance when direct handling isn’t appropriate.

90cm for Additional Working Distance

The extended 90cm length allows the keeper to maintain greater distance while guiding, lifting or repositioning a snake.

This can be useful when moving an animal between enclosures, carrying out maintenance or dealing with a snake that is behaving defensively and shouldn’t be approached directly by hand.

A snake hook should always be used with controlled, deliberate movements and appropriate handling techniques.

Strong Metal Hook

The hook itself is manufactured entirely from metal, providing a strong and rigid surface for supporting the animal.

The smooth construction also helps the hook move beneath a snake with minimal resistance, including when the animal is resting on a rougher substrate or textured enclosure surface.

Useful for Routine Snake Management

Snake hooks aren’t only useful when dealing with particularly defensive animals.

They can also provide a practical way of gently encouraging a snake to move, checking beneath an animal during enclosure maintenance or helping distinguish routine handling from feeding time.

The hook should be used to support and guide the snake rather than restrain, pin or suspend the animal unnecessarily.

Handling Safety

The Repto Black Snake Hook is a handling aid rather than a substitute for experience, appropriate husbandry or safe handling procedures.

Particular care should always be taken with defensive, aggressive or potentially dangerous animals. Venomous snakes should only be kept and handled by suitably experienced people following all applicable legal requirements and specialist safety procedures.

Always choose handling equipment appropriate to the size, weight and behaviour of the individual snake.
