we didnt say anything for a good minute or so, we just looked at each other and then he said how sorry he was and how she never does that kinda thing :cool:
Keep in mind this is a private breeder, he runs out of his house (hes in Orillia if I remember correctly)
So it was just me and him, was a really awkward moment lol
sorry for thread hijacking btw :D Just thought id tell me hilarious story lol!

Lol glad you enjoyed it :D
And yeah they can strike at pretty much any angle, they can even strike at 180 degrees, its crazy
Yeah I dont think I could own an aggresive, unpredictable, 10 foot plus snake lol. If they were at least predictable I would be able to handle it a bit better

Sorry but that is hilarious how you described it:rofl::rofl:
As for the OP's issue, When you go to pick your BP up, do something that changes the current situation and take him out of "angry/nervous" mode. Mist him with a spray bottle or put a small towel over his head. Swiftly then scoop him up. You said the snake is only around 200 to 250 Grams?? LOL... come on now thats little:P

Put on a winter leather or work glove and let the little devil bite all he wants. You'll get used to getting tagged without the pain/shock and maybe he'll learn that striking won't prevent you from picking him up.
Make a little game out of it. Amazing how much bravery you'll show when you you know the bite won't hurt.
Good Luck!
