    Nice boa! Is she a jungle? I love her yellowish background color. Our new boy is really tiny so seeing the not-too-scary results of a large boa bite make me feel a little less nervous about the possibility of being bitten one day.

    Whoa!! Well that seems like a good bite. I really like the snake too,,, quite pretty!

    It's funny we laugh at these most of the time. I got tagged by my little ripper during a feeding mistake when he was really small. I thought it was hysterical LOL!

    Sometimes the bites hurt and cause a bit of panic.

    Check these GRAPHIC bite pics out. Just a nice reminder of what some of us with bigger snakes have to remember.

    I don't think my boa will ever be capable of this, but I'm sure the really big boas could give somebody a run.

    A retic did this. I think anything over 8 feet with mass has the ability to ruin a feeding day LOL!

    Yikes!!

    The blood is definitely the only scary part! As you can see the next morning its nothing but pinpricks

    Oh and I have no clue what she is, she was a Petco buy 4 years ago. I'm assuming normal Columbian though

    Hooks, like Doolittle said. I also was very stupid about it. Trying to grab a mostly blind snake in the night time. Normally I can do this with any of the snakes but you gotta have some way to break em from that feed mode (which I hadn't done)
