lol i know its not the pain im afraid of, ive been bitten before by a bigger ball python at my school. its the 'not knowing when' everytime he moves his head i think hes going to bite me, tonight i let him crawl up my neck and sniff around my face or whatever it is they do. and he let me touch his upper neck which hes never done, really hes given me no reason to not trust him but i just panic lol snakes creep me out!!
