Re: POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?
I have had my BP for almost 6 months, have not gotten tagged yet. But, I know it will happen. I bet it will happen soon, too. Especially since I'm typing this. I'll probably go home to handle him and I'll be posting pictures on here tomorrow. :P
Re: POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?
Two or three years ago, I was handling a BP at a pet store because my mother was in the store next to this one, so I needed to kill time. I set that one down and went to pick another that was in the same cage, but before I could even touch it it tagged me right between my thumb and index finger.
I don't even have a BP yet, but that might explain why I only recently decided to get one or two after getting my corns. :rofl:

I need to change my vote now! I just got a little nip from our Mojo male. Not even enough to worry about a pic.
Anyway...

About an hour after voting no on this, I got bit. Go figure.

I have 4 Ball Pythons right now, and I have yet to be bitten by any. I've had 2 of them for 2 years, and 2 others for a year. I like taking precautions before handling my snakes, to lower my chance of being bitten. It's working so far!

6 years now, not one bite.
Re: POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?
Back in the days when I was keeping a lot of different snakes, the only bites I ever got was one from a Carpet Python (he was a rather excitable snake) and one from a Redtail Boa that was in hunting mode.
I had 12 WC BP Babies, that I handled a lot, none of them ever bit me, and all of them started feeding rather easily. Guess I was lucky. I also had a few rescues, again, none of them ever even offered to bite. A few of mine were really curious snakes, not shy at all, but never a bite. I even helped one shed, I had to give another one meds, plus shots...
I had one HUGE rescue female that laid a surprise clutch. I removed her from the eggs and she hissed up a storm. But she didn't bite me either. Neither did the 5 huge hatchlings.
Guess I've been very lucky when it comes to Ball Pythons.
Getting a lil one on Thursday, so we'll see if I just jinxed myself :)
