My First Bite

Well, silly me got in the way on Saturday night

I was feeding Razor, and I sat the mouse in her cage and she was sitting on my other hand, all of a sudden, she struck!

She attached herself to my middle finger and wrapped around really tight!

First thing I did was yell out to my bf "GET THE CAMERA" and we took a pic on his camera phone
Its a bit blury, but I will post it up soon

She drew a little bit of blood and there is an almost invisible little ring of tooth holes
It was exciting to say the least

And I have also learnt my lesson, dont keep her close enough to the cage to be able to bite me

She is almost 2 months old, so it was barely even a sting
Just unwrapped her and then put the tip of a friends glasses between her little jaws and she let go

And yeah I had just sat the mouse down, so I did
It was a silly mistake

Congrats on your first bite!

I remember my first 'proper' bite (not from a hatchie) about 6 years ago. I had a pair of water pythons and the 8ft female latched onto my forearm. Not nice....
