What if I want to... populate her terrarium?

Is there any animal I can present her? I'm a bit jealous, I must confess...

Eh....snakes do not really like companionship. Eve if it's another snake of the opposite gender they could try to eat eachother, or just stress out too much. Some refuse to eat or may not get proper access to the hot, cold, or water of their enclosure.

And if you're thinking of something fuzzy....most rodents (including rabbits ) will purposefully kill the snake as a defense tactic, even if the snake is too small to do the critter any harm.

Ahhh, that makes a little more sense. If I'm understanding correctly you'd like to give your snake a friend? If that's the case then you're gonna be outta luck. Snakes aren't social animals so they don't establish bonds like we do. He'll do fine alone, he probably prefers it that way.

Nnnnnnu she's my puppy, she's social and she loves my hands. And my face. A little bit too much, maybe. o.o

......

I can't tell if this is a language barrier or someone trolling....

Snakes are NOT puppies.

I'm not sure if it IS a puppy, or he's referencing the snake as a puppy. Can you please elaborate Niten? Is this a snake we're talking about? If the answer is yes, then it doesn't matter how nice or calm they are, they don't have friends. If you add a "friend" to the enclosure, either it'll stress the snake out, or they could fight, depending on what you put in there.
