I seem to remember that you had a snake once? I actually got my mom to hold one of mine (the more pet-friendly old guy I have). Now, she probably wasn't too comfortable but she was a big animal lover so she did it.
Mother didn't live me then. I lost a small leafnosed I had gotten for myself...the pet store (and none within 100 miles) had pinkies, the only thing the snake would eat and it died, I tried other foods but it just wouldn't eat. After that I had a black rat snake and raised my own mice and rats. The snake got mean (I should have gotten a corn snake), I gave him away...LOL...so I ended up with pet rats and mice.
Mother puts up with my two big fish tanks ... changing tub and spare buckets in the kitchen, and Jellybean (parrot) screaming at dusk (vocalizing). That's enough to subject an old lady to, so I won't purchase anymore "stressful TO HER" pets. She would have more dogs, but as much as I love them, two "small ponies" is enough in this little house.
So what kind of snakes do you keep?
