Is the Snake Extra?

I took this photo of a display in a local photography studio. It's on Glove Alley that I used to go through until I found out there was another street a block away that was much better. But this photo always intriqued me so I went back recently. They have your regular type portraits in the window such as high school graduation photos, glamour shots and so on. Right after Ibrahim Rugova died, there were some photos of him on display, too.
What I want to know is, did this girl bring in her own snake or does this place have one on hand in case you want a similar snapshot?
