I was so scared of holding a snake up until a week ago at a reptile store the second snake I held I wasn't scared of at all which sounds silly I'm 28 but I fell madly in love with a beautiful 2 month old albino kenyan sand boa and my daughter loves it to. I fell in love with its adorable face and cute little eyes. I know they hide alot but it's helped me over come a fear of holding snakes which stems from my fear of worms. I'm so glad I got it I get so excited when he pops out of the substrate and I hold him.
