Never??? Wow that must be a record!

My BP has never bitten me (but I've only had her for 1 1/2 years) nor my boa. I think it is the sudden lunging scare thing though. My new spottted makes me jump and has gotten me numerous times (but it's hardly even a pink prick) but it makes me jump all the same. I feel so daft, handling a 1 1/2 ft skinny spotted python wearing gloves I think I have a phobia about being bitten by anything since my parrot started bullying me 5 years ago ...
