I notice some of you take your snakes outside and let them enjoy the air, grass and the natural habitat. I would be so worried that they could bring something back in with them. I dont know what...mites, bacteria, or some other miniature bug. Do you not worry? Is it safe to allow them to enjoy that? (a little more concerned being in the health field)
Thanks for the info...

I sometimes take my snakes outside...mostly for pictures, though. I don't worry too much about introducing parasites or disease; the snakes are only out for a couple minutes at most. I am more concerned about getting parasites from new animals.

But outside gives pictures better than what I could do with the inside lighting and furniture...

Great outside pics. Headshots, my favorite. What kind of camera did you use?

All the pictures of peoples snakes outside make me nervous. I would love to do the same with mine, but I am paranoid for the same reasons as you.
