    Re: Hand taming an aggressive ball python?

    I try to be as calm at all possible when handling Ares, I do know they sense fear and anxiety and other chemical changes of the human body. I haven't tried to handle him at all since I got bit by my adult female. And her bite didn't really hurt that much, it was just the shock of getting bit that caused me to become scared for a split second. So if her bite didn't hurt that bad, even though I bled like a stuck pig, I doubt Ares bites would hurt much, but her bite did leave my hand with a bit of an infection, which is why I want to avoid getting bitten again anytime soon. My finger is swollen and it's going up my hand, and I'm on antibiotics to help with the infection. So i'm not really afraid of Ares, just afraid of getting another nasty infection if I do get bit. If that makes sense. I do thank all of you for your advice, and will take any and all of it to consideration. That's what I am here for. To listen to others and to learn from them as well as my own mistakes.
