I remember when a lot of people used to panic over reptiles passing salmonella to humans.
Haven't heard it mentioned for a while now though.
I heard that one to Rob... I was also told that it had been in papers and on radio..... said story was that the snake had gone into starvation or something, and the woman used to let snake roam on her bed. APPARENTLY it lay next to her and was sizing her up :/

I heard the sizing up one, very funny. The best one which I still get asked has got to be...
"Will my lizard or snake only grow to the size of its enclosure, i.e if I brought a 4 foot snake and kept it in a 2 foot viv it would only reach 2 foot"
This was a quote from a real email I received.

I used to get that on a daily basis. Kinda felt sorry for the customers after explaining why it's not feasible and seeing their faces drop lol
