it feels like tiny pins but its more the surprise of how quick they get you but a rats bite hurts more

 

[DA_GRIZ]

I know what it's like being bitten by a Whipsnake but not a Carpet Python.

...can't speak on being bitten by an adult - being bitten by a juvenile is laughable though...

...I was a bit jumpy before my first bite - and probably still am somewhat - but it over before you react and I didn't feel a thing...killed myself laughing at being so concerned...

it looks worse than it feels just dont panic they let go pretty quickly but try to get a photo if they do i can never get the camera with a snake hanging off your hand

 

[DA_GRIZ]

oh ok

cool. i think my female spotted will tag me getting the eggs from her but if she does goody

 

[cutz]

its all good you get tagged one day even the most placid snakes have bad days

I was bitten by my adult spotted and i didn't even feel it. I only noticed he was hanging on to my when i looked at him to see why he wasn't moving (had him on my hand while checking e-mails).

I believe a bigger python would be similar if it was a clean grab with no pulling. The most painful bite you could receive from a big pythong would be one that you pull hard away from because that will result in you getting lacerated/cut/scratched. If it's a clean bite it will just sting alittle like being pricked by lots of pins at once. Ever put your hand on a spiky bush/shrub like a hakea or something?? I imagine it would be similar to that.
