honestly your best bet is to get bit by one already. At first its a little scary, but it really doesnt hurt at all. The picture I posted above was from my 900 gram normal female which didnt hurt one bit. Just dont pull ur hand away they will let go right away. If you pull your hand away you will do more damage to yourself and could possible harm the snake. I was bit again last nite by 1000 gram female and same thing. Little bit of blood but no pain. There bite really isnt that bad. My burmese pythons bite was much worse.
