Yes more times than I can remember. My last one they got me under the Cuticle of my middle and Index finger... I still stand by my opinion though I'd rather not be bit.

So would I but thems the breaks.. You breed or keep snakes you get bit.. the only way to never get bit is to be totally hands off. And even then your not safe ask any venomous keeper.

I have about 50 snakes three of my balls and two redtails act hungry all the time, all of them shoot out fo their tubs ready to eat. What I do is touch them with my hook then I can pick them up. The moment I touch them they just stop you can see the change in their body, kinda like they relax. I reach in and pick them up, never been bit(knocking on wood). BTW on of the balls was a rescue, when I went to get him he was so hungry(the person was only feeding him 1 mouse every 2 weeks) he struck at anything that moved. Try that its worked for me.

I'm not saying i wouldn't get bit but rather I would do as much as I can to not get bit.
