    I have the coolest bal python ever!

    Well not really haha!

    I'm sure lots of you think that yous is the best, and so you should because they all are amazing in their own ways! I just wanted to share why I love my pastel male so much. Well for example right now, he is right next to me lying up against my side in between my g.f and I. He has been lying in the same position for the last hour, and doesn't move even after I pet his head and his body. He's just sitting observing his surroundings and without a care in the world. He's always doing this kind of stuff, and I wanted to share to see how yours hang out with you. It really makes me wonder if they have something in their brain that allows them to trust, and just retain an overall comfort around humans. These guys are just too cool!!

    Hera likes to chill out on my shoulders and watch me play games on the computer. I do think that they learn to trust us a bit as when I got Hera she was VERY head-shy, but now I can stroke her chin and get near her head and she doesn't freak out at all.

    Btw, sometimes when I have her around my neck she squeezes all her muscles at once and it seems like she is choking me (of course she actually isn't) does this mean anything? She only does it every once in a while and to me it's like a massage, but I don't know if she is trying to tell me something or not.

    Our snakes play "war zone" with the kids... they get to rule their own castle and command an army.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    Your getting choked because he is just readjusting his body around your neck, and that means he has to squeeze you to move.
