    The other day I was up at NERD and holding a baby tiger retic and it kept striking my hand. Didn't feel a thing, but I finally put him back and realized I was bleeding from about 10 spots. Amazing those things can draw blood and you don't even know you've been bitten.

    I have never been bitten, but I think I was 'headbutted' as you describe it the other night while feeding. I was moving one my females from the gram weigher to the feeding container and she just kind of threw herself at my hand. I think it was hind of a closed mouth strike, she could have just been trying to scare me off. She is always a bit overzealous though. My roommate, however, got bitten the other night by our largest girl.

    Congratulations! :D

    I've only gotten tagged once, by a young BP (not my own). She got me at the base of the thumb right as I was pulling my hand out of her tank, so she managed to kind of hook on and slice me! There was a loose flap of skin on my hand that was incredibly painful to touch for a couple days. Feisty lil' bugger. :)

    No it's ok he isn't serious.

    Though I'd appreciate it if he used J/K or similar as many people miss the smilies. :rolleyes:
