What does a bite from a ball python feel like?

the shock is most always greater then the actual bite.

Never by a BP

I got bit by my BP when changing his hides mid-day... it felt like a thump it's the shock that gets you.

Man king's suck lmao! I had one at scales N tails just twist on me, I thought I was holding a croc. Lol but my baby pythons strike fast never latched though.
The teeth are sharp you dont even feel it. My paradox Pin though is on steroids. Im scared of him cause he loves to bite you in the neck. Stupid, yes i can be. But I say the softer skin area is were your gon feel something.

I've been bitten by a 2000 grams Bp. It was a defensive bite, so I was more shocked than hurt :). A bit from a hamster hurts more than a Bp's defensive bite

nothing to worry about, a paper cut

I was bitten by my normal when he was around 1200g. It was a feeding bite, not a defensive (totally my fault). He latched onto my hand, coiled with the full intention of killing my hand, and getting him to let go was the "fun" part.

It bled a lot but it hurt my feelings more than my hand! :rolleyes:

yeah i finally got bit last week by a boa, then some balls that I just got in.

Verrry weird too cuz they were nice when I took them out of there sacks, set there tubs up, went to handle em a couple of days later and they werent too happy. I've only been nailed by 1000gram male. I got a 2400 gram female now, don't know what thats like but I imagine it being nothing. The other guy felt like litteraly nothing! I didn't even feel it! You feel the snakes nose more then anythign hitting your hand or where ever its biting. Deff nothign to worry about.

the first time I got bit it was cuz I was holding a mouse and he missed and he wrapped around my hand and it didn't hurt at all... I was more concerned with how I was going to get him off lol

First it's a quick burst of pain. You are shocked to realize you were just bitten, but you think it's not so bad. But within seconds, the area bitten begins to swell with increasingly concentrated pain as a bluish black mass emerges and eventually ruptures, revealing the inside of your skin. You panic in fear as you reach for the phone, but you are overwhelmed by a sudden rush of fatigue and nausea. You become light headed and pass out, and you wake up in the emergency room, only to see stitches being sown into your open fresh wound.



Oh wait that's a black widow, sorry. Being bit by bp doesn't hurt, in fact it's kind of cute to see your snake's face after he/she bit you. :banana:
