lol, once the snake has grabbed the prey all bets are off. I don't think moving it's sharp little fangs away from your snake is going to cause it any MORE discomfort than being strangled. I recently got my first hungry ball bite. someone could have been trying to break my finger and I probably wouldn't have noticed due to the constriction! XD

it was pretty funny, but doing my best to keep to from happening again!
