    Re: 1yr ball python and 1yr old child

    How hard is it to keep your BP away from your daughter? A BP shouldn't be much of a threat to any human, but there's no need to worry yourself about your BP's potential to cause harm to your 1yo daughter. It's easy enough to keep the two separate.

    Even if your BP is no threat, it would still be traumatic to have the BP get defensive and bite your child. Why tempt fate, when it's easy enough to keep the two away from one another for the foreseeable future?

    Personally, I don't see any real reason why a 1yo child needs to interact with a snake, BP or not.
