I only take my snakes outside on the back patio for sun and outside time in the summer or to the vet if needed. When I took my 7 ft girl into the vet, all the other patients parents were in awe of Rosey lol. They had never seen that big of snake. They all liked her but it seems everyone likes Rosey. She is so mellow. Even the vet and nurses all loved her and wanted to hold her but of course when they held her, she did nothing but try and stretch out to get back on me lol. Once on me, she would check them out but would squeeze my shoulders holding on haha.
I would never take my snakes to a pet shop or anything like that. I'm already OCD about them being in dirty cages. My god, I would have a heart attack with them in a pet shop hoping they didn't catch anything lol.
