some genetics questions

she'll look at them, touch em if I have em out of the tank, but she wont deliberately go into the tank to take them out. My new female corn snake decided to escape the day before my mom was coming up for a weekend visit. You should have seen her eyes bug out of her head when I told her to just keep her eyes open for a loose snake. I told her if she saw it to just grab it for me, and she was like.. Uh.. um.. uh,. well if I really really have to. heh.. guess she felt a bit of relief that the snake didn't show herself that weekend.

Haha! I'm sure it was funny to you... And not-so-funny for her! Yeah, my mom's similar--she won't open my girl's tank, but whenever she happens to see me wandering around the house holding her, she almost always comes over to either pet her or steal her for a while. (And this the same woman who shrieked when I brought in a yellow rat snake I caught in our yard!) Ah, well, at least your mom's not quite as scared of them, now...!
