"Look at them. They're pretty cool looking and they use their tongue to sniff you make sure you're nice and calm", says Christian Besselaar as he handles a snake at B&B Pet Stop in Mobile. Besselaar already has two pet snakes at home but, looks forward to seeing the truckload of creepy crawly things coming to B&B Saturday, January 16th.
Out of state reptile breeder and importer, Matt White, is putting on a day long reptile show. Store manager, Sally Trufant, encourages families to participate.
"They can learn about them, they can hold things. Maybe the family is not ready to get a reptile right now, but they're just kind of doing their homework. We encourage that. We went them to come in. It's a great free show", says Trufant.
