Getting Bit or Almost Getting Bit

[MikeV]

So what did the breeder say?
"so you still want an anaconda?" LOL

we didnt say anything for a good minute or so, we just looked at each other and then he said how sorry he was and how she never does that kinda thing

Keep in mind this is a private breeder, he runs out of his house (hes in Orillia if I remember correctly)

So it was just me and him, was a really awkward moment lol

sorry for thread hijacking btw Just thought id tell me hilarious story lol!

OMG that story is funny but at the same time scary i know right now i would have been flailing my arms trying to get away literally i would have dropped dead lol you made me laugh out loud with that one thanks and no i would never get a anaconda because i have heard of them striking at any direction with NO warning not that there ever really is lol

Lol glad you enjoyed it

And yeah they can strike at pretty much any angle, they can even strike at 180 degrees, its crazy

Yeah I dont think I could own an aggresive, unpredictable, 10 foot plus snake lol. If they were at least predictable I would be able to handle it a bit better

Sorry but that is hilarious how you described it



As for the OP's issue, When you go to pick your BP up, do something that changes the current situation and take him out of "angry/nervous" mode. Mist him with a spray bottle or put a small towel over his head. Swiftly then scoop him up. You said the snake is only around 200 to 250 Grams?? LOL... come on now thats little

Put on a winter leather or work glove and let the little devil bite all he wants. You'll get used to getting tagged without the pain/shock and maybe he'll learn that striking won't prevent you from picking him up.

Make a little game out of it. Amazing how much bravery you'll show when you you know the bite won't hurt.

Good Luck!
