Yeah, because a "sluggish" snake is a "safe" snake, right??

The few times I had snakes get really cool (right after the October storm that hit Buffalo last year and once when I had a snake shipped to me and through carrier error it arrived a day late), both were pretty darn pissed! Probably because they 'know' their reflexes are slow and get more defensive as a result. They may be easy to dodge when cold, but what the heck? If the snake seemed docile, which was mentioned in the story, why keep it cool? Maybe the thought was it won't grow to 15ft overnight if it's kept cold.

Gaaaah!
