Re: POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?
I've had my BP for almost two years and she's never even come anywhere near biting me. She's a very nice girl. :)
My king, on the other hand...

I was tagged just once when I first put him in his tank and I moved his substrate near him and he didn't care for that. I got it lightly and deserved it....My Bad!

Re: POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?
Had two BP's for around a year, luckily never been bitten or struck at.
My parents had two RTB's when I was growing up that they had for years and years, and my mom was only bitten once. It was when it was an adult and it happened during a feed and was an error on her part. She said pain-wise in her experience it was second only to a horse bite.

Ive been bitten twice by ball pythons from pet stores, they were I would say yearlings at the oldest and I'm guessing the husbandry was quite poor or they just had aggressive attitudes, but never by one of my snakes.
Re: POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?
I was bit only once but i don't' even really count it as a bite. My feeding tongs had broken so i was lowering the mouse in with my hand when she went to strike she was a bit off the mark and got my hand. She didn't hang on(im guessing she knew she didn't get the proper target hehe) or attempt to constrict but just went back into strike position and got the mouse the second attempt lol.
Re: POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?
No, I never got bitten before.
But my stinger bit my mother once.
Maybe she was a bit hungry after shedding just before.... :)

lol well after about what seems like a few months I got my membership renewed this morning. I had taken allthe water bowls out yesterday while cleaning sinceI had plann on soaking them over nght in a high bleach mix. ( do this every month) and rinsed them, washed ,rinsed again and allowed to dry this morning. I refilled them and placed back an hour or 2 later. asI was sticking the bowl in one of th new snakes( i purchased 3 breedable sized females in may.for next year ( hoping to hav large clutchs next year) and the one females didn't like the ideal of me handling the bowl and promptly chomped my hand.
Re: POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?
I let my baby that was just shipped from AL to PA bite me because she was striking and I wanted to know what it felt like, barely felt her even touch me. Was bite by a baby lemonblast at a show, he was definitely stressed out barely felt it, and was also bite by one of my baby pastel males (I had a rat in my hand trying to feed him....he missed) =]
