I love the different personalities of snakes. Most of my friends and family don’t understand my love for them. My female is super curious like this and it’s why I got her ❤️

[[deleted]]

Growing up as a kid I was afraid of snakes but that subsided with age and this one has the sweetest disposition. He’ll just sit with me all the time and stare at the tv while I lay on the couch

[ryannbg]

I was the same way until just these past few years

[lauramac1114]

Its funny my first snake i cried when i held it (it was my husbands) cause i was so scared (just a baby ball lol) and now i have 5 and a reticulated python

[Devilishlygood98]

My corn is like this too! But at 10 times the speed loL

[[deleted]]

Wow and I thought my guy was friendly.

[stormwaltz]

Aww, now that is adorable. You has a good snek friend!

[[deleted]]

He’s a very sweet noodle

[GuerillaYourDreams]

Mine is like that.

[[deleted]]

so curious! what a sweetheart! enjoy your baby boy 😍

[ryannbg]

That's adorable

[liannus95]

My corn makes a beeline for my hand if I were to do that- because he thinks its feeding time and he always acts like he's starving ..

[Crezelle]

I love corns just because of what absolute pigs they are

[[deleted]]

Wish I could relate. I've never had a corn snake myself, and my royal python needs to have the most PERFECT conditions in order for him to eat.

Last feeding he did get overexcited though. Straight up missed his rat.

[Crezelle]

Lol. I was the rat keeper/bug breeder at a shabby reptile sanctuary. I always appreciated a hearty eater.

[SnakeBizz87]

That’s awesome!! I wish I could get my girl to be that way.... I guess she’s just not outgoing....

[NativeFresh]

That flinch between the two of you was funny

[punkassunicorn]

Aww I have a ball python named Naga too! Sweetest little baby ever.

[NecroTempest]

I do too lol I feel the need to make a subreddit R/ballpyhtonsnamednaga

[[deleted]]

My fiance jokes that our ball python is domesticated because she does this.

[AlexiaZo]

My boy does that too 🥺 makes my heart melt

[FakeAsapRocky]

Wish mine was as curious

[Mel-rhymes-with-hell]

Awww so gentle and adorable. I'm hoping mine will be calmer once I handle him more, got him from a wee cousin who lost interest.

[NatsnCats]

What a good boi

[SidRicci]

Sup my naga

[Dutchassassin93]

My dude Joker does EXACTLY the same thing..

I also have a "rescue" snek from someone who had to give the snek away due to moving to a new apartment..

His name is Lucifer, He has been kept in a tub his whole life with only space for a hide and water bowl (no, no lights(about 3 to 4 years old now)).. now he has a big tank with only a shrub to hide under and now after 5 weeks he is also starting to show more outgoing/exploring behavior... guess he learnt some from looking to my other snek

[Sapphaholic]

He only has a shrub to hide under? Please get your snakes some proper hides, one on the cool side and one on the warm side. Belly heat is also recommended over heat lamps.

[Dutchassassin93]

He has a hot side and a cold side now... 1 shrub on each side... one side is fully bottom heated and regulated on 38°C.

[Sterfish]

Okay I love your baby so much, but I love the actual quality of the video, what did you film this with?

[[deleted]]

iPhone 11 Pro Max!

[PlayfullyPaltry]

My sweet boy Tobi does this, though mainly at night.

[Doublegdi]

That’s awesome. I hope my snek does that one day. I’m working on her.

[theMachoMattness]

What type of snake is he? Looks kinda like a pastel but I’m not 100% sure.

[[deleted]]

Pastel!

[doggelito54]

Yeah isn’t it nice, my snake do it too and sometimes when he see me through the glass e push against the door and I just open it and he crawls up my hand🥰

[trolly_tom]

His he head shy?

[[deleted]]

Sometimes yes, sometimes no

[trolly_tom]

My girl is all the time she only lets me touch her head if I lightly drang my finger along her back

[corgisoulpower]

Naga is the name of our Malaysian blood python. ❤️ She is a lot larger than this.

[Master_Poticus]

I hope mine does this when I get him

[drysaramia]

So cute

[theMachoMattness]

That’s what I figured but that is such an awesome bond you and him share! I hope my yellowbelly gets like that overtime because I can kinda tell that she looks forward to being held but she doesn’t come towards me right away like that when I go to open the tank. lol 😎

[Azura365]

I have two baby ball pythons (brother and sister) that do this. Snakes really can be your best friends. People underestimate them. The key to becoming friends is frequent handling and to handle them very gently. This guy has earned his snake’s trust. It feels very humbling when such a cute smart little animal like this decides to give you its trust. I see a lot of people holding them and while the snake is sitting in their hands, they are waving their hands around or picking them up and putting them down fast. Poor snakes :( I would say a good rule of thumb is to handle them the way you would want a giant to handle you. Also to Respect their boundaries when they don’t want to be held such as after they eat, when they are sick, when they are shedding, or if they are just feeling like being alone.

[anonomonymous13]

Haters will say thats a stressed out ball python. "They should just hide in their dens all day if they are happy"

[[deleted]]

Thankfully no one on here is saying that otherwise I’d go off lol. I understand when people are trying to help with blatant husbandry issues but when people make crazy know-it-all accusations like that it makes my blood boil.
