    Re: Have all of you been bitten?

    Tattoos hurt worse...
    Cat scratches hurt worse...
    Puppy teeth hurt worse...

    This one was from a large adult...



    Of course, 24 hours later you couldn't even see the teeth marks...

    You can also check out some of the episodes of Snakebytes TV, where they have some good clips of bites...

    7 foot boa. This was just the beginning. I'm anemic so it didn't stop bleeding for awhile and once it ruptured there was a lot more blood. Cut a nerve and a vein. This one HURT.

    22 teeth marks, only 9 are visible in this picture. The rest bled later, leading all the way around my hand, my fore, middle finger, and thumb.

    Wish I could say the same. I've been riding motorcycles most of my life and I have definitely went down more than I have been bit...

    I've only been riding for about 5 years, so have plenty of time to get intimate with the pavement...always have my gear on just in case! Not to hijack this thread, but what do you ride?

    Getting back on topic, one thing I do to help avoid bites is to not handle my guys just before feeding day!

    Re: Have all of you been bitten?

    In the 9 years I've had BPs I've never once been hit/tagged/bit etc. I WISH that I had to be honest lol. Hell, I've been bit by my bearded dragon more times than the balls.

    Because its been so long without a bite it feels like I'm due. At this point I want to get it over with so that I dont have such a mental hangup about it.

    Almost at the point of pre-scenting my hand and offering it up. Almost.

    I love having a snappy snake, they usually have the best feeding responses and they usually tame down with age. Sometimes your not so lucky though, its always fun having a 2000 gram girly launching at you.
