That's OK, that's totally your call...we don't all have the same snakes, & even if we did, that doesn't mean they'd all have the same level of comfort with us.
If your gut says don't do it, then totally listen to your gut. It's not for everybody, nor for every snake. It's just that we have this video with Crowley that brought
up the subject. Some of us are more chummy with our snakes & other pets too than others may be, & I'm not suggesting that everyone should be...just trying to explain
what some of us do & why.
