Eyeless snakes

[Skyrivers]

Your male isn't alone in needing to witness the "zombie rat dance"- but I do have a hunch that a snake without eyes would just be hungry enough to go by
scent & warmth alone, as it wouldn't know what it was missing as far as vision? (-assuming it was otherwise healthy- defects don't always occur 'alone')

I know dogs are quite a bit different than reptiles but I have a double merle gene Great Dane that is completely blind. Her eyes did not form. The breeder was breeding irresponsibly and producing double merle gene Danes in every litter. Some of the other pups were not as lucky. Her eyes are her only defect. She has never known what she is missing and trust me, at the dog park she holds her own and people are astounded at her ability to out maneuver other dogs. Sure she gets excited chasing a dog towards the pick nick table from time to time. Sure she has to jump over it instead of going under like the smaller one she is chasing (most dogs are smaller than danes) when she realizes last minuet that there is a table there. Most of the time she does just fine. She is also well trained and obeys commands really well. Such a drama queen to boot. Love my Zelda.
