She's a rather uncommon species, is fun to feed, fun to watch, fun to keep, and fun to handle as long as she doesn't bite me in the face.
Does she bite through the gloves?

No, because it's a defensive bite and not a feeding bite. Defensive bites are almost always quick nips and never go deep, and her teeth are not long.

She's a rather uncommon species, is fun to feed, fun to watch, fun to keep, and fun to take her out for videos as long as she doesn't bite me in the face. Sometimes snake keeping isn't about getting another puppy dog to sit in your lap and do nothing.
I totally agree with this. I don't particularly like handling my scrub either but I still love keeping him. He's my least favorite snake to handle but my favorite snake to photograph.
