    Re: Does yours snake prefer you or your wife?

    My snake prefers me. Of course my husband would curl up and die before he would touch my snake. But yes, snakes do seem to know who their handlers are. You can call it preference or not, but they know who they know.

    Further hijack...

    Jerome said "Tarantula" to me tonight... and I stopped him with a "What are the words coming out of your mouth!?!"... to which he responded.

    "French is closer to Spanish, than English is to either one... so shut up!"

    I think he won.

    I agree with Slim, but don't tell him I said so. When we only had Bacchus, he like me more , but I also handled him more often because Slim was taking care of his cage. Now that we have 5 PBs we tend to handle our own. Yeah, Slim still takes care of their environments, that just leaves me more time to handle!

    Re: Does yours snake prefer you or your wife?

    I'm the wife, and they prefer me. Probably because my husband won't get near them. He's a squeamish little girl when it comes to snakes.

    Re: Does yours snake prefer you or your wife?

    Most of my snakes do not care who handles them. My salmon, however, likes me more. I have never had her snap at me. My OL, tough has been snapped at many times. Her mom and brother are watching them while we are gone, and both of them said that she was very mean at feeding time.
