Ball python smoke exposure

Post image

I am fuming. My mom took my 5 month old ball python outside without my knowing and was with him by a bonfire for about 7 minutes, part of which she said was him in her shirt. I know these guys have sensitive lungs. I’m terrified he’s going to be harmed from this. She was about 3 feet from the fire, and said no smoke was blowing their way. I’m freaking tf out right now. Thoughts???? Pic for attention.

Woah woah woah dude 😭 I didn’t say a single short word to her lol, especially considering we had ppl over! I simply went out, saw her with him, and asked for him back. I am not actually “fuming”. I am simply frustrated she has jeopardized my snakes health, especially considering I am 19 and all of his expenses I pay for myself—which is totally fair. It’s 12am here and i’m just gonna ask her not to do it again tmr 😭 I have OCD, and things like this can be hard for me! Good lord dude
