I wouldn't be keen on finding a random snake in my house either! But we know 'Nake, and even if he did bite, he wouldn't hurt.. He's just a baby.. Taking away the fact he is a reptile, it's awful to think of him out and alone, and as I said, he is part of the family.. We always go up to his tank and say hello and he slithers up to greet us.. If a human doesn't kill him, it could be anything else a car, a bird, anything.. Poor Nake. DP is devastated.. He had him less than a year..
