How can you tell he is not like other snakes if you have never had another snake before?

Well, I could be wrong but from what everyone says on this forum, they seem to think snakes are incapable of love, and that they do not lile being held, but only tolerate it..... Well my snake seems to LOVE me and WANT to be held by me...

Everyone else seems to think that this is not possible, wich would lead me to believe their snake must not act like this.

"So, how is dead feeding not "cruel"" ?

Well for one thing we are not picking up innocent living mice and having to watch them be cornered, attacked and killed all while screaming for its life and dying a slow painful death. I do realize the food was once alive, but atleast it didnt die such a horrible painful death, and was killed instantly by co2 freezing.

Would you rather die instantly.... or be bitten and squeezed to death while you screamed and pleaded for your life?

You don't seem to listen at all.
CO2 IS NOT INSTANT.
It actually takes longer for the animal to die in a CO2 chamber than it does during the constriction process.
Also, not all frozen mice and rats are killed with CO2.. some have their necks broken.. Especially the ones you get from Petco/Petsmart and not direct businesses. Just keep that in mind.

Also, you guys are going by your "feelings" and what "seems" to be. And that's nice and all.. but we're going by science and real evidence based on the cranial structure of a reptile and what their brain is capable of understanding.
