Hook-Em™ Viper

Hook-Em™ Viper was designed to make even the hardest handling snake, easy to handle! This hook has is the closest thing you'll get to keeping your snake comfortable, and keeping them from becoming agressive. You're not coming at them with a cold metal hook. It weighs less than an ounce, but will handle over a 5lb snake. My competitor's mini hook couldn't do that!

Pictured here with one of the hardest snakes to handle, though it is not venomous. The picture is of an ornamental flying snake, notorious for not liking to be handled. Thanks to Craig Berg and Craig Pelke from Milwaukee Zoo for this picture.

Use of polycarbonate in snake hooks is an exclusive offering for Animal Capture Equipment, Inc.

This hook is exquistite. You can feel what your snake is doing on the hook end, while maintaining perfect control.

This hook won't scratch your cages. It can even be used as a pinner.
