Noodle is my first snake. She's about 9 months old. I handle her every day and she's as friendly as can be. She has never hissed, "rattled" her tail, or musked me. She is truly a very playful snake who seems to enjoy it when I put stuff in her habitat to explore. Here are pics where I first got her compared to one taken last week She's growing fast!
She's got a bit of soil on her in this photo. She just really loves to cuddle.This little friendly snake has been such a boost to my mental/emotional health. She's just so friendly and provides a kind of therapeutic touch that's very soothing.
She loves to soak in a jar with a small plant in it. Will spend hours in it sometimes!
It's part of our morning routine that she rides in my bathrobe pocket while I make coffee, and then she ventures out (usually to inside my sleeve) when I'm checking the computer.
