    I still flinch from time to time, but for the most part its over before you can react so, yea you get to the point when you just check for teeth and move on.. babies are the worst they sit there with their mouth open bobbing up and down it can be cute and then there are day's I really don't want to bleed..I mean really just don't want to bleed..

    Its because it happens so fast! When snakes strike they strike with force which can be intimidating. But once you get tagged your like "wow that doesn't even hurt" haha

    Wanna hear a funny story?

    Well I really wanted a yellow anaconda

    so I went to a breeder with a 9, almost 10 foot female

    I went to go pick her up (she was on the ground) and she struck straight up, about 4 - 5 feet RIGHT UP to my face

    she didnt get me, but I got a very good look at the inside of her mouth

    I almost had a heart attack right there. Its always scary LOL

    Yeah I think my face would be extremely messed up if she had gotten me. Yellow anacondas have huge teeth, and she was huge lol!!!

    Lets just say that I had to sit down for awhile
