I absolutely adore snakes, and that is a very beautiful snake, however I can’t help worrying about this case.
Snakes don’t usually choose to attack humans and I am one of the last people who would ever say they do, but I fear for a seven year old’s ability to treat a snake with the respect that is necessary.
The boy loves his snake which is without a doubt wonderful- but he treats the snake more like one might treat a puppy.
That large snake will undoubtedly need large meals, and when a snake is in feeding mode, they need to be left alone, or they can mistake moving, living objects for prey.
