Re: how much do you interact with your snakes?

I only handle my snakes when I have to. Cleaning their enclosures or shows. Other than that I leave them alone.

same (though none of mine are venomous). I have not noticed any adverse effect on overall 'tameness'. When i had just 1-2 snakes, i would take them out frequently, but now that i have more and am in school, i only take them out maybe once/month or so. The ones that were always a pleasure to handle are still a pleasure, and the ones that were nervous/jerks are still nervous/jerks (though they settle down eventually).
