Are you afraid of snakes?

Let me introduce you to my sweetheart - this is Jake. He's a mama's boy. Love him to death, as you can see. He loves to give kisses, too, which is what he was trying to do. Actually he was more interested in the camera most of the time.








I had to remind him that he doesn't have
fingers so I don't know how he would push the button.


And yes, I know... most of you are squirming at the thought.

What an absolutely beautiful snake. How long have you had him for?

13 years :) He was as big as a pencil when we first got him. He's the same age as Demon #1, too

So few people call him beautiful... lol Usually it's "YUCKGETHIMAWAYFROMME!"

Neat! Do the girls hold him?

Berleen said...

Sure they do! They grew up around him, so it's just natural for them to handle snakes. Somehow it helped my youngest have this fascination with any living thing ... including spiders & bugs.
I think she was supposed to be a boy....
