Snakes are cute

r/

Have you ever watched videos of like ball pythons or corn snakes?

Their little faces when they are exploring are really adorable.

To be clear, I am talking about snakes that can be kept as pets. Not dangerous ones. Ones that are relatively harmless.

    I love watching arboreal snakes in their natural environment in the branches.
    I also believe that keeping snakes in small cages is a crime.
    Same for all other animals, especially if this is done for ‘fun’.

    Hognose snakes have such boopable shoots, and I love them. Ball pythons can be super friendly if they are raised right. Snakes are definitely cute.

    Snakes in hats are also adorable.

    I try, but I just cannot get there when it comes to snakes. One copperhead, 36 hours in icu, 16 vials of antivenin, and watching the doc draw a line on my leg and telling me if the swelling hits this point, we are amputating. That experience sealed the deal for me – snakes will never be cute.

    For me, you nailed the sub.

    So we’re starting to breed some hognose snakes at the moment.

    If I told my 10 year old self that I would just be randomly picking up snakes, lizards, turtles, etc. with no effs given I’d think you’d be lying to me

    I love all snakes, and I think even the dangerous ones are cute. You just really shouldn’t try and boop a nope rope.

    If you’re looking for cute corn snake pics, I have tons on my profile 🙂

    There’s an account on Instagram (I think?) that has this teeny tiny snake that looks like a worm. It burrows in sand, and confused her sand colored carpet for sand and tries to burrow in it. It’s so cute! I know nothing about snakes, except many are cute and I want to boop their tiny snoots!

    I had ball pythons as a kid, I definitely liked them.

    Could never watch them eat though and I probably wouldn’t feel too confident raising one myself, but the ones we had were mostly friendly and very cute.

    If I’ve learned anything from YouTube it’s snakes love to kiss.

    I wouldn’t say this is unpopular. There’s a spectrum of people who either say “ewww I hate it” or “awww wattawattawoopie issa witto boopie”

    Having had 4 snake invasions in my home before, I don’t really think so.

    Especially when all 4 of them were venomous.

    I’m terrified of snakes, due in most part to childhood trauma involving them. That being said, I can kinda see the appeal of them. The non-venomous, docile kinds at least.
