Eventful Feeding night: punched in the face

haha, ok, soooooooo, there I am in the snake room, feeding. I began feeding, and made my way down the rack, until I got to one of my 06 girls, who IMO does not have the greatest feeding response. I have the f/t rat, held with hemostats, in my hand. I see her tub is slightly fogged up, and I cant really see where she's at in the tub. Her tub is a little lower than eye level for me, and as soon as I crack the tub to peek to see where she is, BOOM! she flys out, and close-mouth struck at my face and hit my square in the lower lip, hard enough that my lip hitting my teeth actually drew a little blood. Needless to say, it hurt a little, but mainly scared the freaking crap out of me! It was sore the rest of feeding, but I was laughing the rest of the time too.

Just thought I'd share that.

Got you good, didn't she? :8:

pics? lol we love to see bite or blood pics from a bite around here lol.
