but i know what your talking about there, lol. if you feed in their enclosure then theyre a barrel of laughs for a day or so afterwards. although mines never actually struck me i find it hilarious how he will rush from his hide at the slightest knock or vibration.
aslong as you can get him to smell your hand before biting tho your fine
...why would you feed a snake while its being handled or rather, wrapped around your arm? Are you sure you are feeding the snake enough?


If you want to pick up a snake who looks to be in a bad mood, just approach from the side so they can see your hand but can't turn to bite quickly enough. Then scoop em up and hold them until they relax a bit. Don't wave your hand in front of the snake first and let it smell you. You are just giving it more of a reason to bite you (especially if it is pissed). They are not dogs or cats, they don't need to smell you before you pick them up.
