Venom?

I had a customer come into the store today.
Who was rather wary around the snakes and such.
Not surprising, snakes aren't for everyone.

But she was like "This snake has fangs right? So it's poisonous?" 

Umm....No? Just because there are fangs doesn't mean that there is venom within them.
So I told her "No, we don't sell venomous creatures here."
(Besides like...the scorpion and the tarantula...but we're not allowed to handle those.) 
But snake wise? Nope. All can be handled without worry about being injected with venom if bitten.

The lady then asked a rather....interesting question. 
"How did you remove the venom?" 

Umm....we didn't?
Like....not all snakes have venom lady. 
Which when I said we didn't, that's when the light clicked on for her. "Oh, is this one of those constrictors?" 

Which...yah Pythons are usually constrictors..... 

*shakes head* 

lol. She still didn't want to handle them,
but at least she knows we don't have venomous snakes here.
