The Velvet Revolver star kept mostly deadly pythons and boas at his home but he realised it could be dangerous if one of the snakes got into his son's nursery - so he got rid of them.
And he tells Britain's Mojo magazine he was quite relieved to let his pets go.
He says, "Feeding them all by myself had become a bit of a job. I missed the old days when it was just a matter of finding a couple of dead rats around the corner."
