Overall, the reactions I get aren't that bad. All the guys in my shop aren't snake fans and think I'm crazy, but it's not like they are negative about them, it's just because they don't know snakes. On Facebook, people haven't said anything about them being gross and I have a few people who always follow my snake pictures.Most people think I'm the gross/crazy one, they never comment on the snakes being gross or creepy.
When my husband surprised me with my snake when he fooled me by saying he got me flowers, there were a few women that said they'd rather have the flowers, but I was overjoyed with my little Apollo.
