But prepare for the day when they see you've "survived" your danger noodles and get curious...hopefully you'll win them all over.

That's the game plan. Our 2 kids are grown (boy, 25 - girl, 29) and are room mates but our son is TERRIFIED of them to the point he calls me yesterday and says he wants to move out. :O So, not sure what he's gonna do at this point.

You know, it's kinda sad but I'd rather hang out with a room full of snakes than most of my family & friends. People suck. lol

Lmao! :P Yeesssss! It's true! I'll take a pitbull over in-laws ANY day.

BTW, I misread your previous post (#31) & thought you meant that you already got ANOTHER snake (besides your BP), that's why I asked what you got, lol.
Hey, we all know how addicting these things are...;) I'm like that too, give me a room full of ANIMALS, not people!

Django sounds amazing. So, what about ball python bites? I've heard a cat scratch hurts worse. If that's the case then I'm ok with it.

BP bites aren't any worse when it's a defensive bite. I've never been tagged by a snake and thought it actually hurt. But I've also never been tagged by anything bigger than an adult female BP and never a feeding strike either. I've seen some pics of BP bites that left a little minor bruising, but they're uncommon. Usually it's nothing more than a few "U" shaped pin pricks from the teeth.

Django tagged me once, as an adult, and held on for about a minute and a half before he left go. Barely a few blood droplets.

As long as you're not talking "giant" pythons or large boas, you're gonna be in more pain stubbing your toe, burning yourself, hitting your funny bone, even a hangnail hurts worse. If your anything like me, you do stuff like that all the time too, hahaha
