Okay, I can’t deny that that’s adorable, but, um, snakes are ectotherms. Does she warm him up before threading him through it?

He seems to be very happy! He’s probably wondering why it is pink!

Snakes produce no body heat. Therefor, a sweater is useless. Why

Agreed that other for looks/hilarity value, a sweater for a reptile is useless (now, an electric blanket, that’s another story….)

I like that the snake is called Milky Joe. Nice Mighty Boosh reference.

Or Alternatively you could warm the sweater up if its cold outside of his enviroment and give him a warm snuggly place to kick it xD

My 7 foot boa would totally love a sweater-not to mention she would look adorable! She likes to snuggle in bed with my boyfriend or warm up next to the computer monitor
