I'd honestly rather be bit by a baby ball
Sometimes you just need to grab the camera during a bite from a Carpet Python. Unlike the ball babies, carpet python babies like to bite to kill. My granite has bit me more times than any snake in my collection. Today when I took him out for some macro scale shots, he decided he did not want to go back up (usually when a bite occurs). And so I took one for the team, and after 4-5 minutes of pure biting, he finally let go. Here's the bite, and the after math


I've been bit by baby balls a lot lately since the 2012's are a wee bit nippy, but I'd take their hit and release bites over this mondo kill you bite from a 16" long granite Irian Jaya :-)

Carpet bites always are thoughtful and give you enough time to get a camera, have a glass of tea, set up your exposure, change flash batteries, and then take the picture before they decide to let go

Great photos. Sounds like a typical kids tantrum when play time is over...

Yep he always bites when I put him back in his tub. I let him play in his adult sized PVC cage today that probably made him upset to go back into a tub. Still a bit small for the PVC tank. . . And thanks this was my preferred granite his het granite girl outcrossed is an equal stunner in my mind! I'll upload a shot in a bit
