My snakes are in my office. I have plenty of room but before I have multiple larger snakes I'm def going to get a small rodent breeding operation going and that is def not an option for me now. I def have a keeper too. She loves the snakes and looks at them like her babies. The first snake she ever held was an 8 foot Olive Python at a reptile show and she hasn't looked back. I'm so lucky and thank my stars because I can't live without her. it took me a year to warm her up but she is good to go now. lol
