    Re: Why are people so scared of a ball python bite?

    Ok I could use alittle clarification on a few posts, because at first glance they disturb me..
    things like asking how to instigate a bite and that you require your friends to be bitten. First thoughts that come to my head are that, to get your snake to bite require it to be stressed or in feeding mode. So, removing feeding mode from the equation, why would you stress your animal out to make sure yourself or someone else gets to experience a nip?

    Now Im not trying to bash anyone or start online bickering, Id just like to clear the air alittle. If Im confused on this then someone new to the forum and BP keeping might wonder as well.

    That said, even the best of us can get tagged at feeding time during a lapse moment. I've gotten two bites in my time as a keeper. One from a bin of babies that I reached in to single one out and one from my fire during.. you guessed it, nomnom time.
