    I finally got bit!!

    Well not really,I was doing some tub maintenance and my hatchling ultramel is in shed with eyes all hazed over. Well I'm just haphazardly going from tub to tub and reached in to take her out and she took a pop at me LOL. Not so much as even a scratch but it was the first time one has ever made contact with my hand and I definitely felt her tiny little teeth! I was cracking up after haha.

    Re: I finally got bit!!

    Arent they funny? Especially when they are so tiny

    My brother recently got bit by our axanthic female, Xanado. One fang caught him and drew blood. He doesnt like her anymore even though hes kept saying hes wanted to get bit to 'experience' it.

    Wanna come finish my tub changes to prococo bedding? You can play with the snakes after

    same thing happened to me a long time ago with Yellow. no marks, not even a scratch; he just smacked my thumb with an open mouth.

    i don't consider myself part of the club, but i'm (oddly) anxiously awaiting the day!!!
