Both my antaresia pythons, Armie & Ares are being super active glass and ceiling surfing squirmers tonight. So, going against the rule I have been working with, that is, handling during the day, feeding at night, I've been allowing both of them to exit their cages and onto my arm at their leisure, and obviously with my guidance, they don't get to free range the loungerrom. Lol! Just on and off during the evening. And also one at a time. It's been a really relaxed time and they're both getting really used to me I think. And I'm getting much better at snake handling as well. I find them much harder than the lizards, I think because their reactions depend on a separate set on sensory inputs that are less intuitive to us than the lizards. But just observing, being with them, you start to get a feel for what they are reacting to and why.

“A mix of the Salvation Army and Acid Rock” that's how Ralph W. Hood described the music, played at services of serpent handling churches in Appalachia. Anthony Feyer videotaped a homecoming in 1992 at Jolo, WV.

And after years, the music just came out as a vinyl record titled “They call us Holy Rollers” on Idle Cherub Records out of the UK.

More about Anthony Feyer and the recording on the Alabama Astronaut Podcast, Episode 7.
