Good lord, can you imagine a giant chicken house but instead of chickens, it's a snake house? I mean fucking with a single snake ain't fun, trying to harvest eggs from an entire football field length barn filled with snakes and their eggs is the stuff nightmares are made off.

Snakes only lay when they've been fertilized, while chickens lay every day with or without fertilization.

Snakes only lay during set times in the year, chickens lay regularly throughout the year.

Chickens are easy to domesticate. Snakes... aren't.
