the burm lives in the house with the rest of the family where she has her own room.
i must say she's friendlier then the cat i have at mother's home.
i think there's a difference between making an animal Obey orders like dogs and forming a bond with their owners. snakes won't obey orders but they can form a bond with their owners of course they will never consider you their leader but even your best friend and your wife/girlfriend don't consider you their leader(well not always) but that doesn't mean there isn't a bond.
if domisticated means obeying orders like dogs or recocnize you like their leader or the other 6rule , then snakes are not.
but if domisticated means that they can form a bond with their owners (like i think it is) then they are.
being tame is another thing, for me its when animal won't run away when you go near him like he saw a monster coming to tear him apart . or when the animal won't start roaring/hissing(or whatever sound) at you by aproaching him and attack you the next second.
