Snake Bites

[ConcinusMan]

I think snakes can tell the difference right away if they are being offered food or putting your hand near.

Sure, they know the difference if you're just placing your hand near them FIRST. As in, it's not feeding time. They come rushing out, check out the hand, realize there's no food and get bored and leave.

But if you feed them first, and they're all worked up into feeding mode, forget it. They'll bite anything, including your hand.

love this thread it reminds me of the scene from JAWS where they are comparing shark bites DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN we're gonna need a bigga tank


if you bounced back from that one Gabby i think your ready for the lion taming

hmm Can't say I've ever been bitten and had blood drawn. I've caught quite a few snakes so far, mind you I was only bitten once when I was 7years old n caught a little baby garter, and being young I taunted it with my pinkie finger... low and behold just what it latched on to lol

You will eventually come across one that draws blood.
I wish you luck in this quest.

I've only just seen this thread. My Eastern Melanistic female has bitten me twice now and both times she never wants to let go. The last time she tagged me was last week and after I finally got her off my hand she tagged my girlfriends arm. I find it funny how once you stop bleeding the bite looks pitiful

I've never thought about that way before but you are absolutely right.

Sorry for the late response, but because there is some time difference i'm always late in reply's ...

@ RedSidedSPR: That checkered that bites you I love his face while he bites your finger ....
@ kibakikba: Ouch .. in your lip ...... what that a garterbite?

I'm lukcy so far ... never have been bitten by any snake.
A friend of mine had one that would bite if you take her out, so I didn't pick her up *lol*

[kibakiba]

Yeah, my concinnus who is quite frightened of me did it. She kept getting substrate literally glued to the front of her mouth, and it worried me, so naturally, I held her up to my face and she didn't like it one bit.

[scorpion0151]

next time she bites me I'll try to get a pic, I'm sure she will have another nibble sooner than later

Here's a hungry radix. Was sending me a message about what time it was.
