NOW I know how it feels!

Well I did a dumb thing (I admit)...today is feeding day and the snakes know it. Well Zita (our Colombian) had left me a present in her tub so I figured I would walk her from QT to the herp room (where the rats are also kept for now) so I could just put her on the bed and dump her whole tub out. Well she got the smell of rat and decided to attack the nearest warm thing (my hand obviously). Didn't hurt, just surprised the tee-total hell out of me! But now I know what to expect. She must have quite a clean mouth because I put hand sanitizer on it since I don't have rubbing alcohol and waited for it to burn and it never did. If I would have had my phone in my pocket ya'll would have probably got a shot of her on my hand. lol.

Re: NOW I know how it feels!
I did it big for my first time! lol. She measured 80" at her last shed so not quite a small boa but she is a hungry one cause of the guy that had her before us. I need to feed her more to fatten her up a bit.

Re: NOW I know how it feels!
Hi,
Nice tag. 
Now here is the question that decides how many dumb things you did. 
Is she still in quarantine?

Hi,
Well if the qt period is nearly at an end I don't suppose it is as important but for those reading in the future - if your snake is in quarantiine do not take it into your herp room, it kind of defeats the point.

Re: NOW I know how it feels!
I knew that, but for lack of a better excuse I didn't think, "hey, i'll drag the trash can in the kitchen and dump it out here." Sometimes I just need a good smack on the head. lol.
