lets see...keeping your snakes hidden away in the house so no one can see them?...sneaking around after dark smuggling your own pets into your own house...if i did that my neighbors would call the cops (thy are very nosy lol)...there is a time and a place to take your pets out...its also our responsibility to show people that snakes arent vicious ugly monsters,by hiding them away you just reinforce that image like "oh whats he hiding ,ibet its something dangerous"...my snakes are my pets...they are family,just as much as anyonelses dog or cat yes i do take my snakes out in public but i do it tastefully and descritly...i dont just jump out at people and say here look at my pet i usally stand to one side away from people and 9 times out of 10 everyone eventually walks up and pets my snakes,and take their pictures,,some even get over their fear and actually pet a snake for the first time...never would have happened, if i had stayed hidden those people probably would have been lifetime snakehaters if not for meeting my many boas and ratsnakes which i carry with me to petstores...dont hide...it just paints a bad picture...
