Actually, I had a black racer who was a sweetheart! Maybe because he was raised in captivity? They may not be the type who like to be handled in general, though.
But dude, WITHOUT gloves? I go SKYDIVING! And I pack a reserve chute!! Handling venomous snakes without gloves is like trying to book a reggae band at a ku klux klan rally!
You're gonna have some problems sooner or later, no?
Well, to each his own, I guess. Don't mean to sound judgmental either! I think you are AWESOME for taking care of that black rat snake you wrote about in that other thread! You are actually one of my newer HEROES (friend's request will be forthcoming!). Just wondering, is that something "herpers" normally do? :idea:
(I'm into fads, don't get me wrong, but am more curious than apt to follow on this one!) :eek1:
