I've just read that Aloe vera aids healing and has antiseptic properties, its great for cuts, burns, moisturising bad sheds, nose rub, etc etc with snakes. Can you use this? Is it safe to use? Holland & Barret have 100% natural Aloe Vera gell.

Mind is changing on snakes I want now lol so am researching these to find out what would be best - Milk Snakes and Dwarf Boa possibly - Crawl Cay, Sonoran, Tarahumara or Vera Cruz and poss a Hoggie, African House and Rat snake. Also Trinket Snakes.
