    YAY i didnt get bitten!!
    so i have a BP (rescue) that used to snap and strike at anything that moved. but today i thought, well he hasnt done it in about a week so maby i should try again... it went GREAT! im so happy, he accually tollerated me (the giante gardening gloves helped my confidence a little lol) didnt want to freak him out too much though so i only kept him outta the tank for like 5 min.
    just needed someone to gloat too, all my friends think im crazy for keeping a snake in my house. :P

    thanks for reading.. hehe and happy herping :D

    good for you. but i don't think gardening gloves are necessary. a ball's bite doesn't hurt that bad :P

    After the first bite you get over it pretty quick does not really hurt. But congrats and getting over the fear welcome to the addiction :salute:

    Glad it went well Bobbi. Use the gloves until you feel confident to do without them. Better a confident handler wearing gloves than a nervous one with bare hands, I always figure. :)
