You might want to thoroughly inspect any piece of used furniture before you bring it into your house. You never know what could be hiding inside.
Richmond, Virginia man learned that lesson early Wednesday morning when a snake apparently slithered out of a chair he received nearly a week earlier.
Barrett Edwards tells CBS 6 he was in bed watching TV inside his Dill Avenue home Wednesday morning when he got up to use the bathroom.
Upon exiting the bathroom he saw a boa constrictor coiled up atop a bathroom vent. “I turned around and there was a snake right there,” Edwards says.
Buddy the boa constrictor was luckily unharmed.

You’d walk your pet dog, so why not a pet boa constrictor? That’s exactly what Leon Kidd, 25, did when he got his pic snapped by Google Street View. Thank goodness, Telegraph was there:
Leon Kidd, 25, who has five snakes, was photographed with his 10ft red-tailed boa Nibblez as he carried her along Clarkson Road in North Earlham, Norwich, last summer.
Mr Kidd, who lives in nearby Gentry Place, said he goes out for walks with the female boa almost every day in the summer.
Despite her size and appearance Nibblez loves the outdoors and sliding around in the grass at Earlham Park.
