Hey all
Thanks for the comments...
One thing to watch out for if if your BP decides to do his business out there!!!:8::8::8::8::8::8:
I made Samson a camoflage cloth snakebag. I was being fancy and wanted a solid flat base at the bottom of the bag, to help keep him steady and to keep him safer. I used cardboard as a base with a PVC and camo fabric cover which gave a nice solid base. Only problem was that Samson decided to take a pee and drop some urates.
I only really noticed the smell when I went to take him out and then my error of judgement hit me, pee and cardboard don't work so lekker (local slang for 'great')together . And you could not wash it. Samson let me know that my idea was :rolleye2::rolleye2::rofl:
So I cut the base off and put a new one on that is a bit more flexible and washable, and it looks killer:D. My guys at work will know that when that bag appears, they got some fun coming...:taz:

i bring toki to the pool with me at our apt complex. i dont take him in the water obviously but he likes to lay out in the sun for a bit then curl up in a towel and chill.
hes a total chick magnet
Re: Have you taken your BP to work or anywhere else?
I don't take my snakes anywhere other than the back yard or the vet.
Main reason being, anything over a certain size that could be considered a danger to small children or minors under 18, and small pets is illegal to have on public property here. Yes that even includes ball pythons.
I'd rather just avoid a whole confrontation and avoid drawing attention to my snakes. Especially right now.
Up here a lot of people kill snakes, run them over, hate them with a passion. So I try and be as careful as possible.
Re: Have you taken your BP to work or anywhere else?
nice pics, glad to hear every thing went well. i took my bp to school about a month back, i did a report for my com (public speeking class) on ball python care. im going to school for zas, so taking the bp in had more than one perk. with the exception of one student (who left the class) every one loved her and it seemed like she feed off of it:P it was every thing i could have hoped for and much more.
Re: Have you taken your BP to work or anywhere else?
if im off and i gotta run up there then yea sometimes i do but seeing as how i work at a petstore it kinda is cool
Re: Have you taken your BP to work or anywhere else?
I took Vincent to the vet. Does that count?
Re: Have you taken your BP to work or anywhere else?
We had a bring your pet to work day at my old job...so I did. Needless to say I was the only one that brought a snake, lol. He spent most of the day curled up under my shirt collar, but every so often he would pop his little head out and someone would go OMG, is that a SNAKE!? All the kids loved him...they all wanted to pet him, and for the parents that would allow it I let them pet his lower half. Answered a whole lot of questions too...no he doesn't bite, no he isn't poisonous, no he won't get huge. I always think it's funny when you're standing there holding a snake and someone goes, "Aren't you scared?" Dude, if I was scared I wouldn't be holding him, now would I? All in all it was a fun day, and my BP was quite the ambassador for his species. There were kids walking out going, "Mom, I want a snake!" all day. I even managed to win over a couple of people who's first reaction was to scream and run about 10 feet.
Re: Have you taken your BP to work or anywhere else?
i havent but almost everyone i work with i am good friends with and they have seen them at my house.

Excellent photo!
I used to have a few of my snakes shipped to work, until the day the receptionist mistakenly thought I was out of the office, and opened a package marked perishable.
I should have realized something was up when I heard the scream. I learned that day that our receptionist has a massive snake phobia. I've never seen someone so frightened in my life.
Word quickly spread around the office, and work ground to a halt. Some people thought it was cool and wanted to see it, but others freaked out completely.
It was made clear to me that snakes are not welcome in my workplace.
Other than that, they only go out to go to the vet.
