My carpet python bit me!

[dougie210]

Hey guys,
I just got my first bite, from a reptile i own! As i have been bitten by snakes in shops, but this was the first time i got bitten by my own snake!
First of all, the culprit, was my little 9 month old South Western Carpet python! (M.S. Imbricata) he is a male, and When i was feeding him, he had got my hand instead! It didnt hurt one bit, but just shocked me more than anything!

Culprit-Male SW Carpet python, 9 months old- Time: Feeding Time.

The Bite: between my fingers!

Watch out for the sticky tape in the enclosure….bad for snakes.

my son (12) got tagged by his10mth old MD, and he said the same thing, it didn't hurt it was more the shock!!! :lol::lol::lol:

3 drops of claret you must be writhing in agony and built up a fear factor now dougie......but as was said get rid of the tape and make sure you clean any residue of the glass properly as it still can get your snake stuck on it ....

 

[rockman]

Quick , you had better get rid of him , try and look around for one that enjoys cudddles and tv .
That one looks like he is pure evil .
Must be a hybrid .

 

[mysnakesau]

That's not a bite. This is a bite....

Has someone got a bigger bite to show off :lol:

Sorry dougie. It is funny, at least you know what to expect and know the bites will grow with you both.

MIssed getting a photo when my 3 metre olive was hunting the cat. Lucky my hand was there copped a bite half width across back of my hand, didn't tickle either. Cat slept through it not knowing how close it was to being lunch.
