Re: Craziest questions...
By far the most common question I get is "do they bite?"

Re: Craziest questions...
I think I've gotten most all of those questions at one time or another but luckily not very often. The do they bite question I usually give people a pass on, as it depends on whether they are truly asking, "Does it have the ability to bite?" or "will this particular snake bite me right now?" which is actually a good question that I understand and often ask myself of other people's animals that I'm unfamiliar with and might not be able to read their body language.

Re: Craziest questions...
The one that's most irritating that I get is "Aren't snake slimy?"

Re: Craziest questions...
Have you found out what's wrong with you for liking snakes??? Who in their right mind could enjoy the demon's pet??? You know, God turned sinners into snakes to make them crawl on their bellies for being disobedient!!!

Re: Craziest questions...
People usually wonder what's wrong with me when they hear I have snakes as pets. They also think that my Ball Python will grow big enough to kill me some day. I then have to explain to them that, just like dogs or cats, there are big snakes and small snakes, safe snakes and dangerous snakes. My snakes are the small, safe snakes.
Then they ask how big my Ball Python/Rosy Boa are. When I tell them, they're always shocked that I own such "large snakes", and still believe that they are somehow dangerous.

Re: Craziest questions...
Always "are any venomous", "they are not really pets, are they", " they don't do much" and "why?"

Re: Craziest questions...
When telling people about their vent/cloaca they say things like "I thought it came out the end of the tail" or "I didn't know they pooped"

Re: Craziest questions...
For our display show, we put the snakes in plastic critter keepers, which the snake does not have much room in, but they are only to display the snakes. I'm asked a few time a day, if that is what the live in. This time I finally got tired and started to answer them by saying, Oh no their living enclosures are 1/2 that size.

Re: Craziest questions...
I also got the "aren't you scared?" from my mom..that's when I was buying my baby BRB! She freaked out when she seen my carpet pythons, and that's not my biggest snake.
"Can you feed them something else or is it just mice/rats"
"Are they poisonous?"
"Do they kill you if they bite?"

Re: Craziest questions...
Two dumbest questions i ever heard were.
1. Do snakes have periods and how do you clean up all the blood?
2. What's wrong with my snake eat won't eat it's vegetables? These person had got a snake and had it on a vegan diet for six months.
