I have only been bit defensively, by 2 scared hatchlings. Though today I thawed 2 rats in the snake room, for a couple hours and the pythons were anxious from the aroma! and when I opened flame’s enclosure, she was so aroused by the warm rat scent that she lunged at my heat profile, because I had not yet heated the rat with a blow-dryer! Next time I will heat up the rat before I open the cage! 😂
