I'm conflicted...

[Craiga 01453]

My husband was actually TERRIFIED of snakes....all sizes, didn’t matter. It took him almost two years to finally let me get Ramsey and then shortly after Anubis (Boa) so here we are almost at two years later and just a few months ago he felt comfortable finally holding my biggest (Ramsey) now he is willing to hold Anubis at anytime (She was the first snakes he ever held at a whopping 175 grams) she’s now almost 500g and over 3ft. He knows how large she’s going to get but through the time and consistently handling her as she grows, it’s become easier as an adaptation to the realization of how big she’s going to get. It truly depends of the individual and their comfort level and confidence and willingness to adapt/acceptance imo.

Thanks, man. When/if the time comes I'll definitely be starting with a juvenile so she can develop a trust while the snake grows. She's certainly showed willingness to adapt and accept, I just don't want to push too far. She's come a long way, and I'm happy she's put the majority of her fears behind her as well as grateful she's been willing to step outside her comfort zone to support me and my passion.
I'm glad your hubby has come around too! It's always more fun when you can enjoy things together!!
