and I really hate to say it... (really really!) we need to get a snake in to J Beiber's hands... I'm sure it'd change a few attitudes.
Isnt he a Die Hard fully paid up Member of the God Sqaud methinks he might have an issue or two handling evil serpents lol

Hahaha, doesn't every egg laying creature lay from its mouth though? Brilliant.
It can be about generally stupid people if you want. The other day I was walking a customer's rottie when she calmy plodded over to say hello to another dog. That dog's owner then started screaming at me, picked up her dog, and yelled that mine should be on a lead. I thought that was pretty stupid.
My mum's dog also thought he could run through a wooden bench the other day when chasing his ball. But to be fair, he hasn't had a hair cut in a while, so I'm not actually sure he can see... |

As stupid as it may sound, I can get why your coworker asked. To people who don't know snakes, it seems as if they have only 3 "holes" - nostrils and the mouth. And I suppose the mouth is the more likely one for laying eggs :p
A neighbour of a few streets away was pretty terrified of snakes. When he heard we had them, he agreed to come take a look at them, but only from the other side of the room with the snakes safely locked away. 15 minutes later he was holding Saphira while she went around his arm like a bracelet. He's now the person who looks after my snakes when I'm on vacation :) |

| My dogs have to be separated to be let off the lead for a run (too much excitement lol) so this particular day we have put Seven and Stumpy on the play area (with the black metal fencing) whilst we let moomoo off on the grass. Stumpy then gets very excited, runs toward the grass, jumps into the air! Head straight between the bars in the fence :/ he wiggled free and used the opening like normal folk! |

| At my father's for a few days..My step mother is the kind of person who loves animals - but only when they are cute and fluffy and not eating other animals. She thinks it is not right that I am keeping a snake but finds them so repulsive that she can't tell me why not! My best guess is that she feels I am being negligent leaving her alone. I did think of offering to bring Rosie down next time. |

So true, I've had so many people ask me if and how they poo... I mean come on, common sense here, people!!  |

I guess because they don't understand they can't make a logical conclusion. WE had a pest control man round forsme sliver fish, the guy saw my snakes and kept asking why I didn't catch the sliver fish and feed it to the snake. He then realved some apartments had mice and then I saw him remove old mice bait and then said now if I get mice, I can feed the snakes with it ._.
I dislike the people who go "they carry disease like salmonella" then you see them share food with their dog, allow dog to lick their face or then kiss their cat and then they seem confused why I then tell them that they are more likely to get salmonella from their fluff ball than I am with my snakes :P
I got asked about how they poo as well, like if their bum hole was right in the middle or if they spray it out from the very tip of their tail and how the manage to poo bones out ._. they were also surprised when I said snakes lay eggs. |
   
A very special super, duper thanks for K :3 |

yeah i think its generally people who have never seen or held a snake before who make these assumptions that they are evil and dangerous.
ignorance and stupidity go hand in hand :)
And as long as they were kept in separate rooms, i cant see a problem with having mice and hamsters too lol.
