Ugh is right. I don't DO reptiles. Learned a healthy respect (rather than fear) for them after living for a year on a Louisiana bayou, then 12 years in Natchez Mississippi. There I watched a snake of some kind climb straight up the side of a 1' x 1' column on my front porch. Not wrapped around barber pole-like. It zigzagged up on the corner, then settled in for the night on a ledge at the ceiling. Before that I almost put my hand on a snake that was climbing a tree the same way. We had a 4 footer in the attic for a while, too.

Snakes climb. Mine were some variety of corn snake. And non-venomous.

Is climbing part of parkour? You have a very athletic poisonous snake as a housemate!
