    Bitten

    I just made the silly mistake of putting my hand inside my Ball Pythons tank a little to late right after he was swallowing... I was trying to brush a wood chip that was stuck in between his lips out (he's swallowed the chips before and they're fine), and he struck at me, I managed to pull away, but I started bleeding a little bit. I'm not terribly worried, but I figured I should check to see if anybody could tell me if there is any medical harm... If maybe their saliva carries any diseases or something like that... It may sounds stupid, But I'm just kinda curious... Thanks in advance.

    Now you will become the dreaded ware-snake, unable to control yourself when you see a snake you will want to buy it....

    I've spent thousands on my fish hobby alone its a little scary thinking about how much I'll be spending now that I'm getting into the world of herps.

    That was a kiss. Unless they latch on and won't let go, it's not a bite.
