Thanks I think I am going to go with the corns. my husband is still is not ok with me having a snake he has a small fear for snakes, but he is working on it. He pet a corn at my son bithday party that was at the zoo. But thanks for all the info, I will still stay here and look around and see what what peolpe has to say. I dont want my husband to feel uncomforable in his own home.
