That's the game plan. Our 2 kids are grown (boy, 25 - girl, 29) and are room mates but our son is TERRIFIED of them to the point he calls me yesterday and says he wants to move out. So, not sure what he's gonna do at this point.

You know, it's kinda sad but I'd rather hang out with a room full of snakes than most of my family & friends. People suck. lol

BTW, I misread your previous post (#31) & thought you meant that you already got ANOTHER snake (besides your BP), that's why I asked what you got, lol.
Hey, we all know how addicting these things are... I'm like that too, give me a room full of ANIMALS, not people!

Django sounds amazing. So, what about ball python bites? I've heard a cat scratch hurts worse. If that's the case then I'm ok with it.
BP bites aren't any worse when it's a defensive bite. I've never been tagged by a snake and thought it actually hurt. But I've also never been tagged by anything bigger than an adult female BP and never a feeding strike either. I've seen some pics of BP bites that left a little minor bruising, but they're uncommon. Usually it's nothing more than a few "U" shaped pin pricks from the teeth.
Django tagged me once, as an adult, and held on for about a minute and a half before he left go. Barely a few blood droplets.
As long as you're not talking "giant" pythons or large boas, you're gonna be in more pain stubbing your toe, burning yourself, hitting your funny bone, even a hangnail hurts worse. If your anything like me, you do stuff like that all the time too, hahaha
