I'm going to say this will vary from bp to bp, depends on temperment. I have two that we use for school visits. They show no signs of stress, and will, and have even eaten same day after coming home from a "show and tell". Then we have a couple that are little crab cakes half the time with us, so I wouldn't even dream of getting them near strangers. But my puppy dogs don't seem to care who you are. One other thing that may make a difference, is the way they handle the snake. If they are used to snakes and comfortable with them, or maybe new to snakes and not holding them quite right?
