I'm 39 & have been playing with snakes since I was a stupid kid. Of course, we don't have a huge selection in upstate NY so things didn't start getting interesting til I got a bit older.

You will have to learn how to remove one of the clingy things from the cage (disentangling them is not the way, unless it is critically necessary for your objective), what to do with it when it is out, how to get it back in

Easily moved cage furniture, removable perches, etc. Using long hemostats or tongs to remove the branch/perch with the snake still on it is the easy way. I also rigged some with plastic ivy vine so I could reach in with a hook and lift it out.
