I only have a hatchling maccie. so I can hardly feel it when he bites. He always bites once when I pick him up.
But i am a bit worried, how does it feel when he bites when he is all grown up.
My kids and I handle him every day so he gets used to it, but i know that he is a wild animal and there will always be times that we get a nip.
Can anyone tell me how it feels?

Note: This guys 'bites' are actually feeding response, not aggression. He has an endless appetite and anything warm is considered fair game.
I have a photo around here of him with a fuzzy rat being 'killed' and eaten while he holds a second in his rear coils for later, will look for it and post it up.
Edit note: Here you go.
