Re: I think my snake loves me
--- think its a bell curve---Most snakes are in the middle, just do not care about humans much at all, one way or the other.
They can 'become tame'(*), or learn to be Hostile ( if repeatedly teased and harassed)
(*) they get used to people, put up with being handled, relax while being handled, may even enjoy exploring..
( I think they may be able to tell us apart, seem calmer with folks they know)
most even learn that mice appear After the humans put them back in the cage...
Some just *Do Not Like* humans, Never settle into being handled, will bite and 'run away'. Every time. Never get used to it.
Some (very few) *Like* humans. They are calmer, even as hatchlings, do not hiss, or offer to bite.
These snakes will seek out a 'known human' ( familiar smell?) crawl Towards them, if being held by a stranger--- Not 'love', like a mammal, I think, but more like " a Known, safe, warm, place"
( We become a favorite den?)... and mice often appear, when we have been around
