When I was a little girl, I was in the garden of my grandfather into a northern village, and I liked the snake so I got its and holding in my hands, I do not know why I got so brave at the time but I'm not brave while I'm an adult ! Shame on me :))

 Fear of snakes got the better of me when teh reptile lady found out i was scared of snakes. She told me she had an amazing snake called Tiny for me. Tiny happened to the biggest snake in the room.... one massive Olive Python girl.

Very beautiful creature. I was cautious at first but very comfortable after awhile

 

it felt like it was giving me a massage ahah!

I was a little bit afraid but I got over it. His name was Fred and he seemed to enjoy being held.

Maddie and I got to hold a small boa at the club house when we went for a school field trip. I can't wait to go back during the summer with the rest of my family.

 

Meet Zac the lovely brown python ! 

Left Central Park. Guy on the street asks if I want to hold a python. I say absolutely, as long as I get some pictures taken!

 

 "La boa constrictor es una especie de serpiente de la familia de las boas. Es una nativa de América, desde Argentina hasta el norte de México. Solo la subespecie Boa constrictor constrictor posee el final de su cola de un color rojizo." 

 I held 2 of my sisters many snakes. One as a baby royal python and a boaconstrctor. Snakes wasn't a fear of mine but it was just something I always wanted to do and well my sister has a few so why wouldn't I do it in the comfort of her house.

How cute is this little guy!? I didn't really know what I expected a snake to feel like, but still was quite surprised to find they are so cold and smooth! Little Iroh here belonged to a bellydancer that had performed with him that night, and I had chance to hold him after the show ❤ Beautiful creature :)

 Picture not mine

Living in rural(ish) Australia snakes are quite a common thing, however i have never touched or held one before. Even during my travels there has been so many chances to do the tourist thing and get a photo with a snake, however it has never happened and im determined to do it. Snakes dont scare me so its not a personal challenge i just think because ive tried to do it all these times and never did, that its made it more of a goal to achieve.

DID IT - loved it!!! finally!!!

 

Last year at Algarve.

 

Held a snake whilst on holiday in Lorett de Mar

Her name is Brittnay, and she lives at Reptile World in Drumheller, Alberta.  She is an 18 year old Boa Constrictor, and very docile!  

 

 

I held a black hognose snake brought to a continuing education conference at Bristol Regional Medical Center's Monarch Auditorium for a presentation, entitled "Treating snakebites in Texas, California, Australia, Africa & North Carolina," a lecture topic at the 2017 Wellmont Health Systems Trauma and Critical Care Conference on Friday, May 5, 2017.

Saw 2 guys holding 2 snakes and I wanted in. One of the guys held it with me, then (without me knowing) wrapped the entire thing around my body. Felt it constrict a little bit, so I freaked out. Naturally. Felt really odd, but I'm glad I did it!
