Lesson learned on this one.
You always think feeding day will be just the same as it is each week.
Well, sometimes you can be wrong..
I was gonna feed my BCI, so I danged the large rat pup in front of him (F/T). His tub is a tad hard to see through, but I could make out his figure and pattern and know where he was.
Well, next second he pops up and tags my middle & ring finger on my right hand. Ouch! It hurt and stung pretty good, I must say.
Punctured the vein. One second like this,
The next like this.
I couldn't find any teeth, yet my middle finger was the most swollen and hurt the most.
It still is a bit swollen, but isn't as swollen as it is in that photo.
So remember, ALWAYS WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
I also almost got tagged by the 6-7 foot Dumeril's girl, but she grabbed the jumbo rat right near where my hand was.![]()
