She did it! Lol

Well it took three years but my girlfriend finally held one of my snakes. She's not scared of them really. I can take them out and she's fine, just very nervous to hold one. She finally ask if I'd show her what to do. She was pretty excited and proud of herself. I was too! Not sure why my phone is uploading pics sideways.

Nice! always good to have an extra pair of hands .
I'm very glad i got my partner into snakes from the very start! He's not into them as much as i am, but always willing to help.
