Snake Encounters at family parties: One of the best parties are family parties of all age groups, there are plenty of adults around to help with the handling of the snakes keep an eye on what the children are getting up to.
We find that adults get as much joy out of handling snakes as children do.
Outdoors is great but when the weather is hot our best place to be is under trees as they give proper shade unlike gazebos which hold the heat.
When we are outdoors in the Summer we take bowls for water so that we can cool the snakes down, the children are amazed when they see the snakes in the water.
We can also allow certain types of snakes to lay on the grass and sense real ground although it’s important to keep touching them otherwise they can feel alone and frightened in a strange place.
We run parties for all age groups – here are some photographs of people having fun handling snakes outdoors and indoors.
