    I have a pair of kukri snakes. If you know how they got their name you will understand why they are not 'touchy-feely' animals. I also have a pair of Rhamphiophis, a little research into them should explain why I do not handle them overly much either.

    I did not pick up these species so I could hold them and play with them (I have ball pythons if I want to do that), I got them because I wanted something unique/different to work with. I knew I would not be handeling them and I was perfectly happy with that
