I was watching "Dr.K's Exotic Animal ER" and a vet tech was kissing a ball python. The Dr. said she would never do that because she knows snakes carry salmonella. I then realized I really am not concerned. Idk why. I always wash my hands after handling my snake, but I kiss him, let him explore on my bed (he sometimes goes towards my pillow) and let him slither all over me even after I've showered for the night. I haven't gotten sick so he must be ok.
Do you worry about salmonella at all when handling your BP?
