Question about Outdoors

I see some people post pictures of their balls in the grass or in a branch for beautiful shots.

My question is, is there any risk of the snake picking up any parasites by doing this? I'm so paranoid after Kashmire had internal parasites.

I'd love when he's a little older to take him outside for a brief period of time, but only if it's safe for him! Thanks!

well, i was paranoid about it for a looong time. you only really have to worry about picking up mites if you live somewhere where theres alot of wild lizards nearby. ticks, as long as you dont let them go in long grass (knee high) you should be fine. i just look over my snakes realy quick before i put them back.
