This is not a myth, rather a "time worn" cliche I really get tired of hearing every time a co worker or acquaintance finds out I keep reptiles, mainly snakes. I always hear "The only good snake is a DEAD snake!" To which I have begun to reply, " In another place & time it might be the snake saying that about you!"
Funny thing, no one wants to come to my house, they envision all my snakes & tarantulas run freely throughout my home waiting for the unsuspecting visitor to stop by so they have something to eat again. I've even had some ask me if I feed them small children & dogs & cats? Heaven forbid when I tell them where I keep my frozen mice & rats. Go figure!!

works to keep the dummies away thank god my ex is one of them i got my collection set up so once any of the 3 entry doors will let them see a snake you'd be surprised who does an about face once they spot a 9 foot Burmese even if it is in a locked cage.
did have one of those bible pushers ask if he could hold the Burmese after knocking on the door one day.
i just like to argue and get you riled up dont take it to mean i dont like you or what I'm agueing about. I'm doing it for the joy of argueing dont anybody like good old fashion debates
Yes they do they are interesting snakes but gorgeous.
Someone said that they should feed their baby corn crickets because it didn't eat a mouse pinky. It was a face palm moment.
I took my ball to pick up pizza one day and he is like 24" but people acted like he was a 10 foot python and intentionally skirted around me and my girlfriend by like 5 feet it was quite funny.
