    Neither have I but this little one was freaking out over me picking it up.

    Only about 7 inches long tops, chewed on the skin between my thumb and pointer finger for a little while.

    Do you usually wear pink nail polish, Steve?
    People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.

    Very funny, very funny. That is my daughter Gabby holding the back end of the offending radix while I took the photo.

    You don't fool us Steve. But your secret is safe here.

    Btw, how long do they tend to bite for before they decide they can't swallow your fingers? It must vary, but I get the impression that they chow down for a while.

    This one let go after a couple of minutes. Some chew and some just hang-on.

    I've had snakes just nip me, (like the water snake I posted) and others, like black racers (ouch) and my checkered hang on for quite some time... racers chew like heck.
