time to admit it, who kisses their snakes?

I don't kiss but I do talk to them with a slightly exited voice sometimes, with a bit of cute talk but not too much of course :p I'd love to see them react like dogs do when you talk that way to them, wouldn't that be awesome?!

LOL

I'm so glad you started this thread cos I always want to kiss my snake but am afraid it is peculiar :laugh01:

glad to know it is not

I also thought talking to them all the time pretty weird (they ARE deaf, right?)

it is just so counterintuitive not to talk to a pet ....
 
LOl I love this thread!
Yep I'm a corn-kisser too. I also cuddle, talk baby to her and praise loudly when she has completed a shed. I know they are technically deaf but I have heard that they can pick up vibrations from your voice. Either way it doen's top me from chatting with my snakes. Even if that do look at me like I've gone bonkers. :)
 
I do!! I can't help it...she's so cute! And I'm still not sick.

You know, people really aren't supposed to let reptiles around their head because of the salmonella risk. But if we're all kissing them, I think it's less of a risk than most people think.

I don't babytalk to her, but I definitely do talk to Estelle!
 
Yes, we are becoming immune to it! Is that even possible with a disease like salmonella?

I don't kiss her on the head, she's headshy, but I do kiss her on the neck or back.
 
I have never kissed mine and probably won't anytime soon. I do talk to her a bit, though. Not so much in a baby voice, but if she starts slithering up my sleeve or something, I'll ask her what she's doing in a (friendly) annoyed tone.
 
now that's gross!

I didn't know snakes were deaf. Learned something new I guess.

I even kissed my friend's snake today, and her rat gave me kisses!
 
Snakes are deaf, but they can feel vibrations through their jawbone really well. And I have rats too, they are so irresistible, you just have to kiss their little faces!
 
That's sad they can't hear. I didn't know that. I did read they don't like really loud vibrations.

The rats were so sweet and friendly. Nothing like hamsters or smaller rodents. it's the first time I've ever gotten to handle one.
 
Heck I definitely do... but not corns cause I don't have any... I do my Boas though... yup, on the head, usually they don't really mind :p

@Anerybree- Had you kissed them strait on their Cloaca or like Jim Godfrey here, tongue-kissed and aimed for the Jacoboson's organ that contracting Salmonella would have been a miniscule possibility.
 
I kiss my snakes, and I've got the pics to prove it! :p

This is what happens when a cranky snake kisses back.

I definitely make 'kissy noises' at them .. and Chai "kissed" me once with a well aimed strike to the lip! I also hug them a lot!

When I make kiss noises at my cat he will press his nose right in mine! So cute!
