LOL. Wouldn't let ya near the corner huh? I've had snakes flip out on me before. Once I had an eastern king snake (baby) bite my finger and simply WOULDN'T let go. And you all know, getting bitten isn't NEARLY as painful as it is startling. So I was a little shook up with a snake hanging from my finger. Gotta' love em' though. That snakes name was Elvis, and he had a brother from the same parents named Junior that was a few years older. I reccommend an Eastern King to anyone, they make awesome pets.
