On the article on cuddly snakes, I have an American miniature horse who knows me inside and out and how to get treats. During her show career if my son or I made an error she would shake her head in displeasure. She is a therapy horse and when on the job she knows people and how to react around them. She amazes people with her behavior. Being a new snake owner I am not always sure of their body language but I know if Tiffany makes an appearance she is telling me she is hungry.
Alexa the Checkered garter is still small and tough to catch so I enjoy watching her antics and watching her eat...she peeks out from different spots and then makes a beeline for her "plate." After eating she hangs out for a bit before returning to a hide. The fact that she will eat in front of me is cool as my milksnakes prefer to eat in their hides.

Uhh... wow. I never realized a horse like yours would prove so smart.
