I agree, once you are hoverring over them you're grand!

I'd never let a snake free roam, that would be incredibly dumb! Unless it's like a massive snake with like nothing in that room.

I've had my snakes outside and as Lou said, it was for photoshoots because there is no better light than real sun light :p when I did do this, it was adults only, made sure no cats where about and I was always, always near them so that I could easily grab them if the decided to venture NEAR any poo I hadn't seen and bushes. It also stops predators like birds coming down. After I did have them in the garden, my b/f really guilted me and I felt bad afterwards as something bad still could have happen because of he amount of cats here.

I'd only consider it with an adult that you know is a slow mover!

lol, sorry it is obvious but I only say it as I know it has happened and the person lost their snake!

I really don't know if it would be ok with an adult corn. It's not something I even knew people did tbh. I have seen a few pics of snakes outside on grass but I just thought they were for photo shoots. I'm a bit of a worrier and I would be too scared to do it.....oh and I just thought, I don't have a garden and might get funny looks taking my snakes to the local park hahaha :)

I think it would also depend on the age and the type of snake but it's not something I have ever done.

I would guess an adult royal is not really going to go very far or very fast if you let it have a wander round a room in the house.

I woild never let a hatchling/small snake loose in the house/garden.
