    Re: Why do you keep snakes?

They also tolerate interaction at best rather than seek it out and are more than happy to be left alone; they're all introverts like me. We both like to eat a lot in one sitting and rest/sleep it off too.

    On the more practical side, they're a dream to keep. Don't eat too often compared to most pets out there, they do well with handling but they don't require it at the same time, and they're just simply beautiful.

    Interested to hear what answers you all have.
    It’s complex

    I have always been drawn to unusual things .. be it pets / animals , people , rock groups or whatever.

    So keeping snakes was an easy choice … I started with fish and used to have a pet Pike , then Piranhas … Discus ..


    I keep mine in natural looking vivs , full of branches / foliage and not interesting areas

    I love watching them in the evening and love getting them out if someone wants to hold one .. ( Corn snake or Royal pythons )

    I keep the feisty LTR for myself
