My first bite!!
So today I went to go do tub checks for poo and the first tub I pulled out was my juvenile BP. I was excited to check out his new skin since he just shed yesterday morning. Apparently I pulled out the tub too fast and grabbed his hide too quickly because he got spooked and tagged me. He didn't latch on and in no way did it hurt but I definitely felt teeth. I immediately picked him up to make sure he was okay since I scared him. While holding him giving him a good look over to make sure he was fine I thought to myself "this is hilarious that I feel bad for him that he bit me and I was more worried about him than myself" hahaha. It just goes to show that even with keeping something as easy as a bp - as the snake world goes - you should never get complacent and always treat them with respect. Happy hump day everyone!!

I don't know if it counts if he didn't draw blood, but Welcome to the club!

Re: My first bite!!
Haha I know that's what I get. It was 100% my fault. I feel pretty bad for spooking him like that. There was no blood. U can barely see a tiny little hole where a tooth went in. Poor little guy lol

Highly upset female retic was my worst bite ever. Made ribbons of my forearm. After that I don't really fear anything that isn't hot.

Re: My first bite!!
I've heard retic bites are the worst because they don't just bite and latch down. They bite and pull backwards causing a lot of damage. Is that how it was?
