Will a royal python really feel your love to it? (This topic is not insane)

There have been scientific studies showing that they don't have the capability to emote, however they can do the basics such as feel pain, fear and learn to cope with handling.

well i disagree

on christmas morning when we all opened our presents the snakes were watching us and as they didnt get anything rocky was just sulking under his log and rambo poked his tongue out so they must have been peed off lol

( before you think im a tight git we did get them 2 new hides and some more plants but the kids wanted to give them early ) so we gave them christmas eve lol..

i think that they can bond with you and they come to trust their carer. all my snakes appear to so more affection towards me and a lot less towards my wife were she thinks some of them just don't like her. but its all about trust....thats my sensible answer.

the truth is my snakes love me to bits the same way my kids love me cos i am there daddy/guardian and provider and protector
