... So I thought I'd share.
Just been to pets at home to pick up some dog food. Went to the reptile section just for a look and one of the staff was cleaning out a corn hatchling, with gardening gloves on! He was petrified of the thing, his hands were shaking as he was trying to get it out to clean its tub. Maybe he needs to rethink his job.
My daughter (5) told him he was "being a wuss" and offered to get it out for him. |

Brilliant. But better safe than sorry around a vicious corn snake, they are poisonous you know. |
