| Lovely pics - one thing though, there isn't really all that much difference between smalls and mediums in my experience, whereas 2 smalls is likely to be quite a bit bigger than 1 medium, so I wouldn't go for 2 smalls at once, just get some mediums, she looks ready :) |

She's lovely. I would finish the smalls first, or maybe buy a couple of fluffs? So she could have a small and a fluff instead, two smalls is quite a big meal and a big jump from just one  |

Well done on your'conversion'.All our (5)children love it when its snake handling time-our little baby Ruby (human)23mths old says hello to the snakes and says sssssssss.She gently stokes them and likes the feel when we let them go over her hands.
Sadly we have a genuine 'worm phobic'amongst us,but even she loves the snakes and will very bravely touch them and take an active role in snake care.
Lovely pics. of a lovely girl |

I believe its good for kids to learn about caring for animals-especialy snakes-that have had a bad press from the begining(Adam and Eve).
Our snakes have a very calming effect on our brood-they have to sit still to handle them,and the way the snakes move seems to be very soothing-
could be a whole new form of relaxation therapy?? |

It is the same at my house. I have 4 kids and one husband (known by a few as "Mr Antibac hand gel and gloves" after his first encounter with baby snake poo) and she has won each and every one of them over.
My youngest (who is 15, years not months!) was really upset one day but 15 minutes with Cathy and he was much more happy. Snakes are gorgeous beings. I find spending time with my girl very relaxing too - you are definitely on to something! |
