Tag, you're it!

The culprit the day after the bite

This girl is blind in one eye, and I was trying to grab her out at night time without making sure she knew it wasn't feeding night. 110% my fault. I laughed and felt relieved when it happened because it wasn't so bad (been bit my balls, but this is my first boa bite)

Re: Tag, you're it!
Wow, she is pretty.
Wow what a bite! Was it a quick tag or strike and hold?

Re: Tag, you're it!
That's a nice hit! Probably one of the best I've seen here. :p

Struck and held, with a bit of chewing action. But that lasted only seconds and then she let go and honestly appeared a little confused Lol and quickly went to the back of her cage. Most definitely a feeding response type tag

Thanks! I've seen a few just as good/better but this is hands down my worst one. She's more than 10lbs. It didn't hurt much though, maybe pain level of a paper cut

Damm girl u were leaking good

Re: Tag, you're it!

Nice boa! Is she a jungle? I love her yellowish background color. Our new boy is really tiny so seeing the not-too-scary results of a large boa bite make me feel a little less nervous about the possibility of being bitten one day.

How do you make sure they know it's not feeding time??

Re: Tag, you're it!
Whoa!! Well that seems like a good bite. I really like the snake too,,, quite pretty!
It's funny we laugh at these most of the time. I got tagged by my little ripper during a feeding mistake when he was really small. I thought it was hysterical LOL!
Sometimes the bites hurt and cause a bit of panic.
Check these GRAPHIC bite pics out. Just a nice reminder of what some of us with bigger snakes have to remember.
I don't think my boa will ever be capable of this, but I'm sure the really big boas could give somebody a run.
A retic did this. I think anything over 8 feet with mass has the ability to ruin a feeding day LOL!
Yikes!!

The blood is definitely the only scary part! As you can see the next morning its nothing but pinpricks
Oh and I have no clue what she is, she was a Petco buy 4 years ago. I'm assuming normal Columbian though

Hooks, like Doolittle said. I also was very stupid about it. Trying to grab a mostly blind snake in the night time. Normally I can do this with any of the snakes but you gotta have some way to break em from that feed mode (which I hadn't done)
