I wish that the general public was educated better about snakes. Everyone seems to think that they are mean and slimy.

    My mom hadn't really interacted with snakes before meeting Winry so she didn't really have a reason to dislike snakes. She just thought that they were creepy and that all of them would bite. After meeting my ball python she said that she "looks like a puppy". She even went to a reptile exo with me in January and really enjoyed it. Recently she held a boa at a pet store and wanted to take her home It helps when people keep an open mind.
    Least she is open to trying ... I mean I’m sure you used some persuasion to geese them wheels lol . About least you set her up with a good situation to take care of ... maybe introduce her to the forum if she has any questions lol
