POLL: Have you been bit by a BP?

Wonder if any of these Royal bites were due to touching a rat /mouse prior to handling ??

Smell of rodent and warm skin ?

Mine most certainly was! lol

<><Peace

My girl bit me a little over a year and a half ago one time but I was having an argument with my boyfriend and it was also her feeding day so I was trying to take her out while feeling irritated I guess she felt nervous about me being angry and bit me on my pointer finger took her a little while to release but finally she did. Haven't been bit since than.

Just once when my little Crowley was a baby and it was after feeding him, it was my fault as I smelled of rat.

Not yet by that one. I haven't had him more than a few weeks. But, I'm terrified. Hatchlings STRESS ME OUT! I hate the thought that I'll flinch and hurt him.

I did get my second bite today, by the adult cornsnake. I laughed and apologized. Was in the viv with a mouse in my hand, and then, distracted....Oh, the water needs changing! This is a planted ExoTerra - a thick jungle of Potos and English Ivy, and that water dish is located at the very back.

SMH, about as dumb a thing to do, as it gets. Starbuck took his meal just fine, however.

I've only had my first bp for five months now (which I know isn't very long in comparison to many on this thread), but I have luckily not gotten bit. Honestly, I've never even had him hiss or strike at me. He doesn't strike that quick even when it comes to mice. He seems to have a very chill temperament.

I do have to say I've learned a few examples of what not to do from this thread, haha.

Been bit several times, I think it’s quite funny when they do, I just laugh at it. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...4609385a38.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...84ac96bb63.gif

I want to get bit by one so that I know what it feels like but I want it to be one that's not mine!
