Semi-space-related note: A while back I had a dream that involved a black hole and the Earth. It was weird and awesome all at once X'D

I'm slightly terrified of small snakes though; I'm paranoid that I might accidentally break their bones/spine from holding them too hard.

That's why you don't. Scoop and let them wander. Putting pressure up top can be really bad for their health I'm sure.

They're pretty fast too, I once held a pencil-thin snake and it was basically going everywhere while I stood there frozen with my hands outstretched.

Nope ropes are so cute. I pick up wild ones if I see one.

I avoid touching wild snakes because I can't always tell what kind they are and whether or not they're venomous.

Yeah...venomous snakes are kinda not a good thing to pick up. Best to just let those buggers be on their way ^^;

The only way I can tell is whether or not they run away when they sense you. Like there're two local breeds of green snakes here, one is not poisonous, and the other one is very poisonous, and the only way you can tell those two apart (at least for me, I'm sure snake experts will have more luck with discerning them apart than I will) is one will stick around with its head pointed towards you almost expectantly while the other one will pretty much zooms away as soon as it sees you. They're pretty fast too; I remember being in a group once and the guide saw one and it ran away so fast we had trouble catching up to it despite all of us running after it trying to get a better look at it.

I spend a lot of time researching the markings before I use my handd. But we have a local brown snake that looks like a copperhead here. They're friendly.

On one hand, I wish we had more friendly snakes here. On the other, they'd probably all get killed by the people here. Sigh...

Yeah, my neighbor (pest control) hates snakes and anytime she finds one me or my partner relocate it to our yard.

Yeah, I don't get the mentality of those people. Like, snakes are actively helping us by eating mice and rats, why are you trying to kill them all the time??? It's not like they did anything besides exist unlike actual pests such as rats or mosquitoes etc. :\

Yay for less rats in the world! :D
I keep some mice and breed them for my snake, though sometimes it's hard to gauge how many to keep to keep the numbers balanced...

Yeah, at our most explosive amount, we had like ten cages full of them, which was waaay too many. ;;;
Nowadays we keep it at around two - three cages, though sometimes that isn't enough and I need to go and buy new ones to keep the numbers stable.

It's always good to add some genetic diversity to your snakes diet anyways. Too much inbreeding can make for some defective mice.

Yeah...we had a batch where some of the mice were sickly, a batch where they were all bald on their heads, and another batch whose tails were all oddly short.
I wonder where the breeders get their mice and if they're inbred too.
