my snake choked me

I was holding my snake last night and stupid me let him crawl around my neck the next thing i know he starts holding on a little firm "no big deal" than when i try to remove him he started squeezing i paniced and grabbed him and pulled him off.When my heart rate came down i sat back and laughed.:oops: :( Im never doing that again:colbert:

How big of a snake?

tisk tisk tisk.

no snakey around neck!

he's around 3ft now

he probably wasnt choking you as in attacking you. he was just holding on.

Bad snake!!!!!

Mine does that all the time...he's not going to kill you.

I can't be the only one that rolled my eyes at this post.

I must say I seriously seriously doubt he even 'considered' constricting you. When you went to grab him his first instinct is to hang on, you had let him around your neck, what else was he suppose to 'grab'?

Well if python kid is a younger kid it might have been rather disconcerting so let's be kind here folks.

PK if you are concerned simply do not allow the snake to encircle your neck. Even though our BP's are not a danger to my children it is a standard and firm rule in my house that no minor child is allowed to have a snake on their neck. It's just a precaution we feel teaches our children to be respectful of the power of a snake in case they are handling much larger and more powerful snakes than those we currently house. We also fostered a large and powerful 6 foot plus BCI so it was also appropriate when handling him.

You're right, I apologize, my 'speak my mind' tendancies take the bit and run with it sometimes.
