Re: Do Reptiles have feelings Debate v1.0
I tend to agree that snakes do not have emotion. I will not speak of other reptiles. I believe a snake that is handled often will develop a comfort level with that person, but it is probably no more than the comfort they develop by being in their own cage vs. sitting in a Rubbermaid during cage cleaning. I know that my RTB that I had for his whole life will often try to get away from my wife or someone else handling him and stretch toward me. I do not attribute that to love or emotion, it is because I am the one that always handles him, feeds him, changes water, etc., and he is likely more comfortable with my presence.
