Our son had a ball python since he was a junior in high school. When he went to Iraq, it was up to me to take care of it. Actually I really got attached to that silly snake, he was so sweet we should have named him Mr. Cuddly, lol! Eventually it was the mice I had to feed him that unnerved me! Mr. D like his prey alive and kicking. I was more afraid of a mouse getting loose in the house than I was of him getting loose.
