If you want to know what hurts, its a bite from a ferret. I have four and if they want a rough play or smell something on your hands thay dont like look out!!!

Congratulations on your first snake! I think I speak for all when I say: Pics ! (and I dont just mean of your new pet... I mean of when you get bitten too.. ) not that I would have a clue, but I would say 'let' yourself get bitten once...so that you know what to expect....(by that I dont mean feed it without tongs.. I meanif your nervous or paranoid about it biting you...the sooner it happens the sooner your confidence will grow.....right guys?)

got my python today, calm as (think it actually enjoys being handled) and looks unreal, will post pics tomorrow when i get the cam..
as for the bites, the first one i picked up launched from one hand to the other (bout 30cm) and bit me, nothing at all and my reflexs were to slow to react anyway, so no chances of hurting the snake...
second one i was handed bit me straight away, once again nothing and again my reflexs were ****e (thank god im not a mouse, id have no chance 
it should be noted that they didnt look friendly to start with
but the one i chose rocks, best looking one of the lot.... cant believe i got a python |

It is more the shock factor... they are very quick when they strike and you barely have time to flinch. If a decent sized adult gets hold of you and decides not to let go it is a slightly different story  |
