I recently watched a video of a snake giving birth to live youngs. i always thought that snakes lays eggs but after watching that video my misconception changed.. I always found reptiles the most frightening and the way those little ones moving with sooo much energy was really terrifying. Have you guys experienced something like this ever.

Some snakes such as Boas, Rattlesnakes and Garter Snakes do give birth to live young. There might be others as well that give birth live but I'm not 100% sure on that. I know many people who hate snakes, I personally have always been fascinated by them and actually had a pet Corn Snake for a while. He was pretty cool, my mom was afraid to come over to my house but she eventually got over that fear.

Really, you have a snake as a pet . Then you must be a snake lover. Reptiles are always frightening for me even if it is a small lizard.

@Anjanadi I don't anymore we had him for a little over a year but sadly he passed on. It was more my ex wife who wanted him but he was a fun pet to have. It felt really weird when he'd move around while you were holding him.

While reading your post I too get shivered .. I have not experienced .. But I too get annoyed of seeing a lizard , cockroach , snake like thing .. In child-hood I have directly view a Cow putting out her Calf , that was at the age of 12 or 13 I think ..
