So yeah..I went to Planet Reptiles today (in Norco) and I was checking out the ball pythons again, and me and the employee were sitting there with the pythons, and I look down and the one I'm holding opens it's mouth, and I think "Oh no....dont do it" and it clamps it's jaws down on my hand! It wrapped it's entire body around my forearm and hides its head.

The store guy tries to pry it off me, we're both trying to unwrap it from around my arm, and the fangs are completely sunken into my hand now. Five minutes goes by and the guy runs off to get peroxide. He said peroxide, when dabbed onto the snakes nose, immediately would make the snake let go. I wasn't so lucky.

The guy puts peroxide on it's nose, in it's mouth, and nothing happens. It's still biting down hard, and so we work to pry it's head off of my hand. We finally got the lower jaws off, but it's fangs were still digging into my hand. Blood is everywhere, customers are freaking out, and FINALLY, after ten whole minutes of having this thing on my hand, we got it off.

So much for BP's being docile, friendly snakes lol. I was just wondering is it really true about the peroxide?
