    The wrath of Humphrey...

    Well Humphrey Boagart is the only snake in my collection that's ever bit me. He's also the only boa I own. Man, these guys are SO different from ball pythons it's funny. The last time he bit me was the first day I brought him home. He has since been nothing but a pleasure to own and work with. He's socializing well and tolerates me swimmingly lol.

    Well, last night he unleashed the fury...on my poor unexpecting boyfriend lol. He of course made a mess of his tub, so I took H out and asked my boyfriend, Andy, to hold him while I cleaned. This was partially my fault since it was night, on feeding night, and I may have still smelled like my pet rat Lucky even though we both washed our hands. Either way, H was not happy to be out since he was expecting a big juicy rat in his tub lol, and my boyfriend got his first snake bite!

    I totally didn't believe him when he told me he bit him, then I saw the damage....

    Do you think he'll make it?
