    I think my snake loves me

    If someone personifies there BP let them. A gentle disposition while being handled can be perceived as affection from the owner and that shouldn't be a problem. I believe that every keeper should try to understand the mentality of there snakes whether it be dictated by species or an individual within a species. I think we can all agree that some snakes have good attitudes and some have absolutely bad attitudes and tendencies. Personally I don't feel any snakes are apt to affectionate behavior but he may have a snake with a good disposition, that doesn't mind being held and likes to be close to said keeper for warmth. Let him perceive it as whatever he wants. Perceptions not reality but if personifying said pet snake enriches the keepers hobby why not? Someone made millions of dollars off of the pet rock idea for F&@! Sake.

    Honestly it comes down to one's spiritual opinion on the concept of love. I know my snake doesn't love me, but I know he is more receptive to me than he is to other people because he recognizes my scent and associates it with gentle handling and protection. If I hand him off to a friend, he is much more cautious and reserved. He trusts me not to hurt him and knows my handling technique. Is that love? Sure, if that's the word you use to describe such connections.

    Spirituality and semantics.

    I think my snake loves me

    for the people who automatically shut off the idea, you will never experience it because you have already shut the idea out of your mind. facts aren't facts and the only thing I know, is that I know nothing (Aristotle). don't jump to conclusions based on your human perception. open your minds.

    Its been steadily ongoing since then... Why so insistant to kill a thread that doesn't need to be killed?

    I think this is a good conversation..
