biting

my snake bit me and it didnt even hurt how many people got bit by there bp

Sweet. :sweeet:

I think most people that keep snakes will get get bit sooner or later. Most don't hurt too much.

What caused the bite? Sometimes husbandry problems can lead to stress which can instigate a bite.

i had mice smell on my hand that is what i think caused it

Nice! I've never been bitten, but am looking forward to it! :D

it does not hurt ate all ,how often do they bite

I havnt been bite personaly but when i was younger a friend and I used to catch snakes in the woods, and he went to go grab one the snake snapped and got half his finger in its mouth....i think it was a little corn but dont remmember to well. 2min. after that though it was pretty funny, should have seen his face...

Not yet, and I don't really want to be bitten. Although I guess if it happens it happens. :P

It depends on the snake. I have some that would probably never bite me, and I have others that make me cautious every time I peek in on them.

I have yet to be bit yet, however i'm sure it's not even close to as bad as being bit by my sugar gliders! Now those can bite! AND DO ALL THE TIME!

My cat bit me on the forehead once. :mad:

we had a mouse once that bit me.... those little stinkers hurt!!!!!! :eek: :mad:

I think any mammal bite would be worse than a snake bite. The only thing that freaks me out and makes me jump is their speed. I still jump every time I feed my BCI. :oops:

i have been bitten.....it doesnt hurt one bit :D


i have been bittin by a dog on the chin....omg now that hurts! i had stiches! :mad:

Feel free to come to my house, I have a couple that would help you out! My adult female BP has quite an attitude on her, as does one of my juvies..and the carpet pythons, well, they're still small :twisted:

I've been bit many times, mostly by the young snakes that aren't used to being handled. I would rather be bit by a snake than any mammal out there.

I got bitten on my wrist by an adult female BP not long ago, and while it wasn't excrutiating or anything, I certainly felt it...throbbed for ages and was a little swollen and bruised for a couple of days afterwards. She got really lucky and hit one of the big veins in my wrist is all. There are pics around here somewhere...I put a thread up about it. She was a new girl and underfed, and -very- -very- hungry. She's gained 200g since and still gives me the eye every time I slide the tub out even an inch.

I have not yet been bit, but I cant wait till he bites me I just want to know the feeling and see his reaction when he does so that I know not to be shocked hehe. My Bp is very calm when I pick him the only times that he jumps back is when I put my arm down and its anywhere near its head but he still doesnt strike its kind of weird. Another thing that concerned me about him is that he has been little bit scared lately around me or when I move my hand around him he will sometimes jerk his head back. But once I grab him he is fine he just moves around and smells me :)

I was also curious what are those numbers in your signatures like 2.0 normal ball or 1.0 cat or dog is that the age or something??

Dean these are indicating gender. It goes male, female, unsexed...so a 0.1 dog would be a female dog, 1.1 ball pythons would indicate 1 male, 1 female and if their are unsexed animals it would be indicated in the last number as in 1.2.5 lizards....1 male, 2 females, 5 unsexed. Hope that helps.

Alrite. Sweet... I sooo knew that I was just testing you :) <Sarcasm> Hehe Thanks a lot I really appreciate it.

Get bit on a weekly basis. Always my fault just in a hurry and whack, then it stings and burns and bleeds and I move on. LOL

I have been bit right next to my eye and on my finger.

WAS AWESOME

Been attacked by both my snakes. my bp thought my hand was her lunch, and my 5.5ft RTB decided that no matter what I said, he wasn't gonna go back in his cage. Both drew a little blood, neither hurt. Both had major shock value.

My pet Bald Rat bit me when I handed him a snack. He didn't mean to bite me and that hurt!!

i havent been bitten by either of my snakes....yet....

i got bit by my corn the first day i got him cause i moved a lil 2 fast and he struck at me and got my index finger.didnt feel it.havnt been bit since.

both of my bp's have each bitten me once. floyd, during one of his first feedings. when i went to grab him out of his feeding box. he was about to shed and half blind because of it so i don't think he realized it was me. didn't hurt at all. then kiara, when i was walking thru the house with her, i was coming up to a doorway and i think she got spooked, thinking i was gonna run her into it. i didn't realize she bit me for a few secs. then it stung a little and there were a few drops of blood but no biggie! i wouldn't worry about it.

BP's dont hurt, they just tag you real quick and thats that, more of a shock than pain. Anacondas are different, they just open thier mouth and kinda swing thier teeth around, and you will get cut, and bleed, alot.

My most painful bite was putting a french fry in my 3 year olds mouth, lets just say, WHO THE HELL BITES DOWN ON A FRIGGIN FRENCH FRY THAT HARD!!!! drew blood and everything.
