Affection?

[Dawn1131]

This is a divided topic, I know. I was just wondering what everyone's opinion was. Do you feel your snake shows you affection in their own way?

OMG, I never saw the results on that. I absolutely cannot believe it was that close. People had to be faking votes.

Well there will be answer based on reality and those based on anthropomorphism, I guess whatever make people happy.

Some facts are that snakes have very primitive brain capable of primitive emotion fear, aggression but they lack the cerebral capacity for love.

They don't cuddle, do not wait for your return when you go to work, could not careless if you ever come back, just like if a snake handle better with one person does not mean he likes that person better either.
