I don't think my snakes have a preference. If I had to guess I'd say me, but that because my husband won't touch the snakes unless it's an emergency. That's HIS preference.
Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off
Then you Stand
I'm the wife and hubby doesn't take them out or anything (unless he's one too many beers) but he's the best cage builder/rat set up maker/helper there is, so I think the snake likes him too.
Um I am the wife, but I'm also the one that keeps bringing home cute little animals while he rolls his eyes and says "not another one"
All the snakes are mine, and I spend the most time taking care of them. But I do have to call him for help when cleaning the tubs of the bitey little ones.
mostly its "here hold this so I can clean its mess"
Also he normaly has a higher body temp than I do, so they always enjoy cuddleing up with my "heater"
im not married, however im the snake handler in my household. my girlfriend wont touch him unless i place him in her hands. she does not like to reach for him.

They do not “prefer” people (I am pretty sure they could not care less about me or my husband) however they can sense whether or not people are nervous or comfortable which means they will act differently.
MY snakes act very differently with my husband who is not comfortable with them.
