Gtp Bit Me! Yaya! Duw!

I was feeding him/her in the living room. and I was trying to move her head so that she could see the mouse because she wasn't looking at it. My finger smelled like a mouse and you get it. surprisingly it didn't hurt. but bled a bit. here are some pics.

I was totally not expecting it so I pulled away really fast. I am happy I didn't pull any teeth out. She/he ate right after though. She is still eating it as we speak.
Here is the culprit eatin some grub, on the chaitr in the living room/dining room. lol

Lol thanks for looking!

Why would you move her head instead of just moving the mouse to her? That sounds like ASKING to be bit to me.

And why are you feeding her on a chair in the livingroom/kitchen/whatever? Isn't it an issue when you have to move her right afterwards? I wouldn't want to risk regurge...

Sorry if this comes off as negative. I honestly don't mean it to. :oops:

She had her head under the chair an I couldn't get her attention. So yeah it was just my stupid mistake. And its like 5 feet a way from my room. A little bit of movement won't do any harm. It hasn't yet. So I see no ill effect.

Why are you feeding her on a chair? Why not just feed her in her enclosure and reduce her stress? :confused:

I thought I would try it once. Just for fun. It swallowed it fine, No problems there. When I moved it, it didn't regurgitate, now the next day it hasn't regurgitated. I think its fine and it hasn't been an issue yet. I so far see 0 ill effect.

Look at your finger then. :P

I mean to the snake. lol.

sounds like it's feeding very nicely!

Seems like its feeding fine, but I guess its just a lot of members' personal preference to feed in the enclosure. I do, but as long as the snake is eating on a regular basis and hasn't regurgitated, I see no real problem with it.

See, thanks! Thats what I have been trying to say. He/she is still fine and digesting. No regurge here.
