Hey, just thought i'd show some pics of my 11 year old nephew, he tried to pick up my water python, and I guess she must have been a little hungry cause she decided to have a bite, her name is Nibbles for obvious reasons 
He took it well too, waited till she just let go, got a little panicked after she let go and I was trying to get her off his arm, he thought she was going to have another go.

You gotta expect a little bit of tears from a 11 year old... it would of just been the shock of getting biten, not cause it hurt him too much.
Looks like that finger will be a bit tender for a few days hehehehe

And yeah the nephew didn't want me to see he was upset, but he kinda gave it away

He's been asking me to buy him a snake, but with eight other nieces and nephews to think of, it might be a bit costly.
I will try and get some pics of her this arvo, when i feed her (again )
