I think that people are blowing this way out of proportion. If anybody leaves any negative responses to me personally, I will disregard them. I do though, agree 100% with some people that are saying a young kid is more of a threat to the ball than the ball is to the young kid. someone I know with various herps, including balls let their 4-year-old handle one un-supervised... well... it ended as bad as it possibly could have. BUT I did read the whole thread, and I really don't think that the snake was in much danger if you were that close by the WHOLE time... just MY opinion...and also in MY opinion it's good to learn and start young...

Nice pic and good luck,

Rachel
