I've seen black snakes and redbellies handled as though they were pythons :shock:.This is not a practice i would undertake myself as the old saying goes the most poisnous snake in the world is the one that just bit you..

start with playing with your own snake that you know, then as you get more experienced you can venture towards others and play with their snakes too :shock:
