This is good! ^.^
It's nice to see an animal like me, especially a snake because I always thought in general they were pretty mean but Gizmo's a sweetheart. I've tried this several times, I've put him in random places in my room ex. my bed, ontop of the nightstand, TV. And everytime, he has come right too me. He doesn't even wait to pick me up he just slithers up my leg.
Is this a sign that he likes me or, is it because of body heat?

Snakes don't really have the "social" skills to really like you on the same level you may like him, but I absolutely feel like they eventually recognize their keepers as non-threatening and will eventually stop being defensive in our presence (and there's others that just flat out fear you no matter how many times you reach in to change a water bowl). Thats about as close to "snake love" as you're gonna get!

Ah, I know but it all depends on their personality no matter what species of animal. But does anyone elses snake do this?
He also seems to like it because I fell asleep last night with him. I would have thought he would slither away but he stayes right on me, never moved.

I'm going to have to agree with Adam on that one. It obviously sounds like you really like your snake. Why would you risk losing another snake if it had happened to you once before? :confused:

Arm-wrestling over the laptop for internet access? :partyon:

Re: This is good! ^.^
I didn't mean to fall asleep I just sat down while I was holding him then fell asleep and woke up 7 hours later. He was still on my abs(yeah! sexy abs!)
And yes, I love him, he's my little buddy. I'm going to try in an enclose, safe room and see if I can get him to safely free roam.

Why do you a) want to see if he'll free roam - he'd be much happier in an enclosure size appropriate and b) see if he gets along with your dragon? Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

Ack! No internet?! You make that sound like it's supposed to be a good thing. :psychotic
That does sound like a blast, but that's one heck of a roadtrip for me. I'm going to take baby steps and will be going to the NARBC in Southern Cali this September. By next year I should be able to get a booth between Ralph and Kevin at Daytona. :cool: If that doesn't work out, then I'm hoping to be able to get close enough to Ralph or Kevin's booths to see some cool snakes. :P
