    Django sounds amazing. So, what about ball python bites? I've heard a cat scratch hurts worse. If that's the case then I'm ok with it.
    BP bites aren't any worse when it's a defensive bite. I've never been tagged by a snake and thought it actually hurt. But I've also never been tagged by anything bigger than an adult female BP and never a feeding strike either. I've seen some pics of BP bites that left a little minor bruising, but they're uncommon. Usually it's nothing more than a few "U" shaped pin pricks from the teeth.

    Django tagged me once, as an adult, and held on for about a minute and a half before he left go. Barely a few blood droplets.

    As long as you're not talking "giant" pythons or large boas, you're gonna be in more pain stubbing your toe, burning yourself, hitting your funny bone, even a hangnail hurts worse. If your anything like me, you do stuff like that all the time too, hahaha
