Hi guys. I've been offered a hatchy bhp but I have an 8 kg fox terrier type inside dog & I have a fear that needs perspective because she is my world, apart from being a very valuable specimen. I have a cat about the same size too but he's welcome to become snake lunch :lol:
We all know how bhps test their cage limits & even the biggest pros have snake escapees occasionally due to owner error like a phone call at the wrong time or pulling the key out without turning it etc. What are the chances that if my snake gets out as an adult (obviously something I'll do my best to avoid) that she will get the dog if raised with her? Doesn't have to actually eat her. Constricting would be enough to consign said snake to sushi.
No point receiving answers like "I've had snakes for 100 bazillion years & never had an escapee". This is a what if situation. Like what if a burglar broke the tank on the way out.
My dog never goes out unsupervised so wild snakes are not a problem & she is very sweet & wouldn't attack the snake though I can't say the same for the demon cat :evil:
