    Joined the club

    Well I officially joined the club today. He got my hand as it was feeding day. Was going to put him in his tub and was going to open the lid and he stuck at my hand, I'll chalk it up to a good feeding response since he didn't even wait for me to put him in the tub to strike at the mouse. Was still wrapped around my hand and stuck and then fell into the tub while constricting. So happy he eats well and that I got this bite out of the way. Yes I also cleaned it up with antibacterial soap.

    What? No pictures?? You realize it doesn't count without pictures, right???

    I can't say "Welcome to the club" because I haven't been bit yet...but my husband has his "I TOLD YOU SO!" all prepped and ready to go whenever that day comes.

    I got in the way of my little albino and his prey. Was all my fault.. washed the hands, but forgot about the long dangly sleeves.
    He latched on, constricted and didn't want to let go... For just around 300 g's, the little guy is stronger than I gave him credit for! Blood was dripping down my arm I didn't want to "pry" him off for fear of causing him injury and after about 5 minutes of debating "what do I do!", I turned on the sink and passed him under a gentle stream of water... it worked. Believe it or not, even after the - what I thought to be - traumatic experience, he still accepted his dinner

    Didn't get any pic's of him coiled around my hand, but this was the resulting damage... Pic isn't the clearest because I was trying to take it with my left hand.
