Never been bit

But my girl is shedding, I am kind of thinking about just sticking my hand in and letting her bite me so I know what to expect in the future.....votes???

Ughh, lol... Personally, I wouldn't. You will find out one of these days how it feels, let it be a surprise.

Why do you want to encourage her to bite you? If she hasn't before, it'll probably cause a bit of stress to get her to do it, even if she is in shed.

No not because it hurts or actually because of you at all. It is possible that you will instinctively react (you are only human after all) and jerk your hand away. It is also possible to break or pull out one or more of her teeth. It is going to happen sooner or later a snake will bite you I see no good reason to risk an injury to an animal with no good cause, curiosity is not a good enough reason. She may not bite as well all you will do is cause her stress by the attempt, again, it is bad for your snake and what is gained by it? nothing.

I was just gonna stick my hand in and look away at the same time, but I'd rather not stress her out!!!

Why in the world would you want to entice the snake to bite you? It will happen one day soon, you are a snake keeper!

I voted no. If it happens by accident then oh well but no way am I going to increase the odds;)

Keep snakes long enough and you're gonna' get bit sooner or later. No need to rush the inevitable...

If you're asking that question... I think you deserve to get bit...

Come reach in my GTP cage and she will give you your wish. She tagged me this morning, I think she likes the taste of my blood. She is alittle cage defensive.

My BP has never tried, even in shed, to tag me. I wouldn't go trying to get bit and teach your snake bad manners.:colbert:

I have a nice Mastif that will take a taste of you if you like.

I don't see why y'all are all acting like I killed someone over this....I wasn't going to do it unless you all said yes it was a good idea, but I got results of no, so I'm obviously not going to do it. I didn't know if it was a good idea, which is why the topic was created....please don't jump to conclusions and act this way!

I'm not sure why you would ever consider intentionally trying to get your snake to bite you. I imagine it has to do with the fear/anticipation or what it is like to get bit and the desire to get it over with. I can tell you from personal experience that a bite from a BP is equivalent to a scratch from a at or a slight paper cut. Absolutely no pain at all. A bee sting is 1000x worse. So don't worry about it. It'll happen eventually and you will be like "oh that was nothing". Just enjoy your snake.

i never been bit by any of my snakes i want to get tagged just 1 time so i get it over with to. it looks like they might bite sometimes but they just never do

Yeah thats all I want to. I was just asking if it would be ok, I guess I may have worded it wrong, sorry for the confusion!!
