Re: how much do you interact with your snakes?

Snakes don't enjoy being handled.They don't form those kinds of emotional connections. At best, they tolerate it because they recognize that you aren't a threat. Plus, maybe they get to do some climbing and exploring. Occasionally you get a snake that is curious and comfortable around you to the point that they may actively come to you. However, it's likely that they just associate you with a chance to be outside of their enclosure. They're also the exception to the rule.

Put yourself in their position. Imagine you're minding your own business, when a strange giant pulls you out of your house and starts playing with you. Now imagine you're also naked and you think they're going to eat you. If it happened enough, you might eventually get used to it, but you'd never enjoy it.
