    I've been bit a ton by Khaa and can say for myself that the worst part of being bit is the shock. A BP bite doesn't really hurt much, I've had worst bites from hamsters and rats. Got bit in the same place on my hand, BP bite barely had blood, but that rat bite was gushing blood, it was horrible. That being said, the rat did bite much deeper. If anything, watch out for those rodents lol.
    Yes, absolutely! That is the hardest part! When I got bit by my pastel girl it didn't hurt too much, but it hurt worse than when I got by the full grown BP. The bite I got from the full grown was a lot bigger, had a good bruise, and there was a lot of blood. But when my BP bit me there was barley anything! She drew a bit of blood but you could barley see it. It stung more than anything though. And I totally agree with the rodents! I got bit by a Guinea Big once and it was a lot worse than the BP!
