Hello from Toronto

[Snakewitch]

Just a quick hello. I have two adorable snakes; a corn snake, Charlie, and Calissi, a brazilian rainbow boa -- both young ones. Love this site!

Welcome to the madhouse ;)

[marvelfreak]

Hello and welcome! We love to see pictures of your snakes.

[Snakewitch]

My pleasure ...Charlie, the corn snake showed up in our back yard one day and I took this pic before I picked him up.

Calissi, the rainbow boa is just a darling and much more docile than Charlie. I'm the only one that handles her for now as I'm trying to get to know her.

Question for the forum ... Do boa's bond with their handlers?

[Snakewitch]

Calissi in my hand

And Charlie at home

There is no evidence that they do.

Snakes do not "bond" with their keepers but can recognize your scent as harmless and thus not attack you as if you were a predator. They can use you as a heat source and appear to " hug" you or enjoy you but the reality is their brains are not capable of such reactions. Sorry but its true. We have had a member or 2 lately swear on here that their snake loves them. This unfortunately can never be true.
