i had a redtail boa too. but i sold him to a tranvestite that needed him as part of a show. i couldnt refuse his/her offer. i developed a trick during feeding that i passed on to everyone i sold a snake to. i only fed him in a bin designated for the purpose. that way, when i just reached into the cage, he didnt expect it to be dinner. but when i placed him into the bin, he went into attach mode. kudos to your chinese girlfriend, mine is too. but i dont think mine counts because i am chinese too

jen is taiwanese, so i think eating snakes was part of her history. there is a street nicknamed "snake alley" over there, because that was what was on the menu. she is freaked by snakes, so i dont think i will count on one. haha. i love tortoises! i used to have a spurred thigh, but i lost her in a breakup with a psycho gfriend. what a beotch!
