Ok, then I'll be fine. It might scare me at first when I am eventually bitten, but I think I've had worse. I was bitten by a rottwieler a few years back. Put a nice hole in my arm at least an inch deep. I think a BP bite will be nothing when compared to that.

The one thing I'm wondering is feeding in the cage. I've heard this leads to the snake associating the opening of the lid and the appearance of a human hand as a sign for food if you feed in the enclosure. Will feeding outside the enclosure decrease the risk of getting bitten?
