    Re: Do you hold your snake on your neck ever?

    I never do; they get caught in my hair, and it stresses both me, and them, out..!

    I don't put them around my neck. I've had them get stuck in my hair as well, and well..... ummm.... they always flick their tongue on my ear and I'm super ticklish. (just not a good combo)

    Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
    You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
    On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
    You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off
    Then you Stand

    Re: Do you hold your snake on your neck ever?

    I don't like em near my face, makes me super nervous .... so does when they tighten on your neck to get a grip


    of course, I was scared of & didn't like snakes before we got these so there's still things that make me nervous about them but I like them & they are fascinating

    I worry about my ball python falling off, but I carry my JCP over my shoulders all the time.

    Nope, never found a reason to put them around my neck. Holding them works quite well for me.

    Re: Do you hold your snake on your neck ever?

    My BP are small enough to hold in a hand or two but my BCI girl is pushing 7 feet and 16 lbs now so she is a bit easier to hold around my neck
    lots of snakes

    Oh no. You too?

    And nope, you did not read that! I definitely, positively can NOT stand tickling of the ear. Now you must take your punishment....

    Re: Do you hold your snake on your neck ever?

    Puppy, my ball, is a climber. So even if I carry him in my hands, he tries to make his way to my neck. It's his favorite spot in the world, especially when I'm walking. And my boyfriend's red tail, Absinthe, throws a hissy fit if he doesn't let her on his shoulders. She coils around them and rests her head on the top of his. I see no problem with it. They just like the vantage point, or it seems that way to me. We've never had problems with it.

    Re: Do you hold your snake on your neck ever?

    Whenever I think about putting a snake around my neck, I reflect on how many times I see them after they pass a urate, sitting on urine-soaked paper in their tub.
