I brought my exotic pet to the pool

Jun 30, 2023

AN exotic pet owner has terrified swimmers after throwing his massive snake into the pool to let it slither across the water.

TikToker Black Ivory is a reptile enthusiast who shares videos of himself getting up close and personal with snakes Rocky and Banana Pudding.

In a recent video, Ivory (@theblackivory) took Rocky out for a swim while his friends watched in horror.

The massive Burmese Python sank into the crystal blue water before swimming up to the surface and coiling his body to book it across the pool.

His eerie movements elicited yelling and swears from a crowd of onlookers who nervously waited while he headed their direction.

One girl standing and watching could be heard saying she would be terrified if she had witnessed the pet snake in the wild.

Rocky eventually made it safely to the other side and nestled his head on the stairs while everyone waiting took a step back just in case.

The reptiles influencer clarified that there wasn't enough chlorine in the pool to hurt his pet, and said going on regular swims is actually fun for the animal.

While some commenters were freaked out by the video, others said that Rocky looked super cute splashing around in the water.

"I'd swim with him," one person said with a heart-eyed emoji.

Another said: "He's having such a good time awe."

Meanwhile, tons of other users said they could never be caught dead taking care of a snake.

"Trust me to never swim in that pool after that," one horrified onlooker said.

Whether they hated the big snakes or loved them, tons of users agreed that Black Ivory was giving them the best life that he could.

"Can tell you care for them how someone else would care for a dog," one person said.

"Man every day we have a blast," the creator responded.

The influencer posts tons of tips and tricks for how to best care for exotic reptiles.

In a recent video, he explained why he always opts to feed his snaked dead or frozen rats instead of released live prey.

The TikToker recorded his massive yellow python Banana Pudding while she held a huge rat in her jaws.

He zoomed in on the rodent to reveal its massive bottom teeth that it had and said a live rat could do serious damage to your pet.

"Just imagine if the rat was to bite the snake near the eyes with these monster teeth," the passionate pet owner said.

"Always supervise your pets."
