Did I mention that the place where I work also has reptiles? I really don't mind. I have a couple of snakes of my own. One, an Eastern King Snake. He's about 6 feet long and about 1 1/2 diameter. Today, I had to clean the enclosures of two much, much larger snakes. An Albino Burmese Python and some sort of Boa Constrictor. The diameters of these guys were about 5-6 inches. They are extremely gentle. I wasn't worried about getting bit. The one thing I was not ready for was just how strong they were in comparison to my little king snake. I was able to keep a hold of them though, and get the job done. They are both beautiful snakes.
