    This is not a feeding mistake nor a defensive strike, just one of those bizarre moment when I handle one of my snake and all of the sudden the said snake slowly open it’s mouth and start chewing one me. :rolleye2:

    What I wouldn’t do for a cool picture :8: (just kidding)

    WAIT!!!! that happened to me too!!! i was holding my pinstripe, and she rested her head on my thumb, then slowly put her mouth around my thumb!! i got scared LOL, but she was making her way to teh tip of my thumb! but she didnt flinch, or anything when i moved her, i still held her tho.

    i didnt kno how to explain it. i wasnt moving at all, i didnt feed ANY animals, was wearing different clothes, and was just chillin on the forum XD

    Great pic, maybe that's his/her way of giving you a kiss and telling you that they love you.:)

    That has got to be one of the greatest pictures of all time..

    On a side note, don't let it fall into the wrong hands.

    We've had two Brook's Kingsnakes at the store that did that to me...for some reason I find it adorable :D Never happened with a Ball, though, that makes it even cuter!!

    My rosy did this to me too. She was so slow about it lol. I was like... What are you doing? Are you about to bite me? But no, just felt like gnawing on me for a second lol. It was pretty funny

    You know, I had this same thing happen to me, but in a different way.

    I was laying on my couch playing Xbox or watching tv and all of a sudden I feel this weird tickle-ish feeling on my arm pit and I look down and Candice is trying to put her mouth around my arm pit somehow and I was thinking, "Well, that's kind of odd?"

    :O

    Its cute when its a baby. Try it with a full grown 2000 g female. I was holding her talkin about how she doesnt bite and she slowly just took a bite a wrapped around. I mean like, placed her lips on me and slowly chomped. Pain in the butt to get her off

    I'm honored, though, frankly, I don't think this is my best work :P
    I didn't even notice the date! I had no idea I'd gone that far back in the archives!

    My year old male does this to me almost everytime I hold him. Usually on my wrist or forearm. It's not a feeding response or a defensive strike, he just opens his mouth and bites.

    Anybody know why they do this?
