Coffee Lovin' BP

[Lady Python]

Had Byron my BP out last night.

He's sitting round my shoulders (his usual place). I remembered I had the remains of a cup of coffee (which by now was only lukewarm).

I took a sip from the coffee cup. As I did that, Byron's head came up and he tried to help himself to my coffee Weird feeling a snake trying to get between my coffee cup and my lips. His tongue was flicking like crazy. I'm sure he likes the smell of coffee. He wasn't aggressive or anything.

Anyone else got a BP with strange tastes?

I know BP's can be quirky, but I think I'm going to have to rename him Odd BALL!!!

hmm, well it's not really taste related, but recently i had one of my bps, snick, around my neck as i stood at the sink getting ready to wash out his bowl. the sink was about half way full of water at the time and i was just waiting for the water coming out of the faucet to warm up. the second he spotted the water he dove off of my neck and into the sink. it totally freaked me out at first but he just lazily did a few laps like no big thing. i picked him back up and he got all squirmy trying to get back in the water. i never knew he liked to swim.

It's not the first time Byron's showed an interest in my coffee. He's often sat on my shoulder sniffing at it, tongue flicking, but it's the first time he's tried to drink it LOL. It was quite funny him trying to bore is nose between my lips and the coffee cup. Good job it was only lukewarm. He looked a bit miffed when I put the cup down.

It was one of those moments when I wished someone had had the camcorder out.

He's certainly got character

maybe i should dip the rat in some coffee before offering it to my picky eater.

DD seems to like to tangle himself up in my hair. I have brown curly hair that reaches the center of my back. It can take me a few good minutes to untangle him sometimes. He also likes my Chai tea lattes.

LOL. If Byron ever escapes, the first place I'll look for him is the coffee pot
