it wouldn't let me reply to your comment so I hope you find this one! But you're right, the snake (she) did seem calm, I was careful not to make any sudden movements. And she luckily never turned her face around to meet mine, she never tried to bite. The most intense moment was when he got her to flare out her hood.
Can you tell what kind of snake this one is? I thought for a while it was a water moccasin but I really have no idea. That's the first one they put around my neck and it stayed there the whole time... with me holding its head of course.
