ok, continue to take your snakes out in public. The one time your snake nips one of your neighbors kids you'll have a problem on your hands. And thats all it takes is one time. If you really know your "pets" I'm sure you'll admit that you can never really predict what they will do. This goes for cats dogs and especially reptiles. I agree with you as far as it being a shame to hide our animals and keep them in the house but the bottom line is, they are on the border of becoming ILLEGAL. To me its simply a good decision to keep it as private as possible. Again, you seem to consider your Boa a pet and thats fine. If I had one snake, I may have that take on it as well. But when I said I had to move 150 adult snakes into my house, think about what that would look like to people I havent met yet. It's just smart. Law makers are on RECORD as saying these snakes(yes, your snake) are dangerous and shouldnt be in public. They are turning up loose in the public all over NY. I am being considerate and wise by not having people know I have snakes in my house. I can enjoy them in the privacy of my own house or back yard just as much without having to show the world what a cool "pet" I have. Protecting the hobby is what I am doing you could say. What are you doing?
