Dude, seriously... Norman (my male pastel BP), truly thinks he is a dog. And not just any ol'e dog, but like a lab or something that just is ok with anything that goes, loves to play with everyone, and is just a generally happy being...Originally Posted by Salamander
Soon as I go out where Alice is, he's out of his hide, periscoping and gawping around and making a general nuisance of himself.
I suspect his "conversation" would be more along the lines of "Hey you! Leg Thing! Lemme out! There's been a terrible mix up! Somebody has mistaken me for a snake! I'm not..no, really....I'm supposed to be a dog!. Help!"
It works almost every time.
If I don't take him out, he gives up, goes back in his hide and flops his head down on his stone "pillow", emits a huge, over-done "sigh" of dejection and just stares at me, accusingly until I leave the room.
It's so melodramatic.
I only have 4 snakes, so I don't have a large statistical pool to choose from, but Norman is absolutely unique in my 4 snakes. He is just so super chill, loves human contact, and seems supremely interested in everything that goes on outside of the snake world...
That look of "hey, whatcha' doin'" as soon as you walk into the room - how rare is that with snakes?
