Re: Does he smell CHICKEN?!?
When my snake room was closer to the kitchen I noticed that as well. Either they like the smell of cooking chicken or they were afraid I was burning down the house and running for their lives :rolleye2:

Well mine isn't SUPER close to the kitchen, it's in the next room over but you can definitely smell the yummy meat...I think he feels the same! lol

i have 2 cages right next to my kitchen come over and cook some chicken we'll test this out..

Strange, I respond the same when I smell chicken cooking.
Re: Does he smell CHICKEN?!?
Have you ever heard of the trick of dipping a f/t mouse in chicken broth to get your ball python to eat?
It's a similar idea. If the smell of meat is strong enough for us to smell it, it's 10 times stronger to them. :]
I mean, can you smell a rat if your holding it 3 feet from your face? Not very well. :gj:

hehe i think its like like 100-500 times stronger
But it would make sense, chicken is the one meat that smells like itself cooking. hamburger has a totally different cooking smell
I would assume if every time you cook he does this, that you proved your own question true :D

Yeah, about that.
But it was just an expression.
