Most people would define my Anaconda as nasty but i say she is just misunderstood.Thankfully that bite didn't leave a scar but i did have a decently sized bruise on my face for a couple weeks, i think i was more upset when she bit my arm and ruined a part of one of my tattoo's.
I have a soft spot for the big snakes, i am hoping to add a Burm to my group within the next few months.
Long tongs would definitely be a good idea, bites from snakes in feeding mode are the worst!
