I've managed to survive almost a dozen in the last few months, can anyone beat that? |

I used to catch adult Eastern Beardies when I was younger and they really hurt if they got you - not that I let it happen too much. Same with the E/Water Dragons and Blueys! Ouch!
To help me wake up in the morning I just close my eyes and wave my hand around inside the snake enclosure - does that count also LOL |

Bites can sure leave you with some nasty scars,only ever been really hurt by my 4yr old bredli,Roxy girl.I Was hit while feeding, she took my thumb and index finger aswell as the rat.Haven't bleed like that since i worked in butchery,and she left some teeth to go.No damage really.
but i have seen some photo's from a large scrubbie bite.Nice!!!.
Stitch job and now he has a gr8 scar on the hand and will be able to tell the grandkids some good stories.Would have hurt.
But vens they are a different case,any stories anyone. | |
