Pretty much this^^ Just saw a video here the other day too of her hand feeding snakes. I'm thrilled that my daughter is fearless when it comes to snakes, and loves them to pieces and participates in all things snake. However, I do take precautions. I have two balls that will bite you, and I won't let her handle them. Granted they couldn't really do any serious damage, but when I have plenty of other friendly snakes, why have her get bit? She also feeds all the snakes, but I would not let her hand feed a boa. And I'm still plenty proud of her.
