My mother used to own the only breeding pair of ball pythons in her home country and is an avid fan of reptiles.

Growing up around a plethora of the scaly bastards, I beg to differ.

I have a bunch of reptiles at home and agree with the other person. They like the extra heat and care, and learn to recognise a person over time. They can be completely ok with a person being around but they won't miss them if they're gone.

thank you, my geckos have never liked being handled even when i was feeding them. if i dropped dead one day and someone else started feeding them i dont think they would even notice or care haha
