I know Im going to take a few hits from people who disagree with me on this, but, no one will ever convince me that BP's have no "feelings" for their owners. I dont know if Im just lucky or what, but my Ball Pythons react to me like a puppy or some other sort of pet! When they hear my voice, they come out and try to get out of their tank. I open it, and sit on the floor, and they come and get on my lap! When I take them outside for a "slith", they follow me around the yard. And, after they atre outside for awhile, they enjoy a drink out of the hose! My youngest gives me kisses when I ask him too, and he loves to get wrapped in a towel and a warm blanket when hes through with his bath. I lotion them up with a mild non scented lotion about 3 times a week, and they have the most beautiful flawless "coats" youve ever seen. They stretch out as far as they can to reach me when I put them on the bed...its so cute! Is any of this normal behavior for a Python? My motto is "If you dont treat them like a snake...they wont be one!"(not that theres anything wrongf with that!)
