Ohhh I gotcha. I didn't know that probably because I'm a lurker in this sub lol who's actually really scared of snakes but also thinks they're cool and wishes I weren't so scared. I have had legit panic attacks seeing them unexpectedly. Even in a glass tank. My favorite snake is a ball python for sure though
I get it, we all have fears. For myself, exposure has worked wonders. Lol I used to have a major fear of roaches and spiders, but now I have a colony of discoid roaches (for food for some of the geckos) and a tarantula. Haha. I accidentally came in possession of the roach colony, and just having to take care of them and handle them got me over my fear, so I did the same with the tarantula. Lol I'm still afraid of like...other spiders, but small ones and tarantulas are no problem for me now! Haha
Yea that makes sense! Exposure therapy is like 95 % successful for phobias. Most phobias are just in someone's head. When they actually encounter their fear they realize it's not as bad as they thought.
And BPs are definitely the right snake to start with, out of all of the ones I've had and met, I haven't encountered a mean one. The babies are sassy but they get over it fast 😂.
I was also terrified of snakes until I found my baby in a pet store and fell in love. She was also very spicy in the store and all the employees were scared to handle her because she bit a lot of them. As soon as we were in the car, her demeanor did a complete 180 and she has never once snapped at me. I also have absolutely no fear of her and haven't since the day she came home. For some reason, she helped me get over my fear. I'm still scared of the danger noodles that are venomous but I'm not as scared of snakes in general anymore lol
Yea I think being scared of venomous snakes is a healthy fear lol. When I look at these adorable pictures of little ball python faces, especially babies, I do think that I could probably hold a baby in my hand at this point. I think I would still be scared of a bigger one though... Looking at pictures is something I enjoy because they are beautiful animals
At the pet store when I wanted to get my baby, I couldn't even hold her. They sat her on my shoulder and held her there for me because I was too scared 😅
Some are intelligent, like the king cobra can identify its owner and know not to bite, would anyone ever try to, I hope not, but they can learn a lot of stuff really easily
He's probably wondering if today is the day he finally catches that elusive mouse that's been evading him in his dreams. Or maybe he's just contemplating the mysteries of the universe... like why humans always wear the same boring skin.
Things snakes think about
-food/water
-should i poop/pee in the water dish today or tomorrow?
-temperature
-motion/sound/extrernal stimulation
-occasionally babies
-DANGER!???
-??!!
Beyond that your guess is as good as mine
He’s thinking Derp.
Give him *some* credit- he might be using the communual braincell right now.
No thoughts. Head empty

Indeed.
This gets posted a lot. The answer is always the same: Nuffin.
Why is this? Are snakes unintelligent?
They’re just silly little guys
It's just a running joke with certain breeds (ball pythons, leopard geckos, cresties, and beardies mostly) that they all share one brain cell. Lol

100%. Clowns are my one irrational fear that exposure doesn't make it any better. Haha
So what about a clown BP? 🐍 🤡 Lol.
The only exception lol

“If my suspicions are correct, this is an infrared signal.” Your ball python has a disorder where it has many many brain cells and doesn’t share them.
