    A ball python bite

    Ive got bit by rodents which caused a lot more pain and bleeding. I had a hamster bite bleed for 2 hours. Snakes bites I wash off and usually cannot find the mark.

    I believe someone once compared being bitten by a ball python to being attacked by velcro, which isn't far off in my experience

    I wish I could answer this.
    I'm still not a "real" python keeper as my balls and carpet have so far refused to bite me.
    Actually, no captive snake has bitten me, just wild ones and I can tell you Northern Watersnakes hurt like a... nah they just scare the daylights out of you when they strike. And a Northern unhappy about being picked up will strike like crazy.

    Tell the truth, guys! He's going to find out eventually anyway.
    Truth is, you're gonna want to make sure you always go in with your non-dominant hand first!

    (just kidding, it's nothing. If anything has ever bitten you, it was worse than a ball python)
    Adversity does not build character, it reveals it

    Rodent bites are the worst bites through and through. Except maybe parrots. Oh God. They like to grab hard and shake. Can't be afraid of a little snake after that.

    If you got bitten by ball python while blindfolded, i think you will only feel something is poking you, not biting you. because the bite it self almost not hurt at all
