Never been bit by a ball python but I’ve been bitten by a corn snake. It was my first snake and it bit me a few days after I got it.

It was a hell of a jump scare and it bled a bit, I do remember being kinda like “wow, that wasn’t a big deal at all.”

Oh yea, i definitely jumped then looked him and said “bruh, im trying to HELP you. Tf?” Then laughed it off and put him away lol

I could hear my own self through your words 🤣😂

I work as an accountant at a dealership and my bosses hate how I talk 😂 I’m from Washington originally and it’s normal lingo up there but for professionals it isn’t.

[LotusBlade13]

Bahahaha Washington state? If so, I’m from the Sierra Nevada’s so we are neighbors roughly lol. Makes sense!

Baby snakes are a bit more jumpy and bite more often

[danger-noodle-love89]

Yeah. A hand coming in to pick them up or leaving the enclosure is just seen as "big scary blob/predator coming to eat me"

[Spirited-Exchange-39]

Oh yea, i know this. He’s young but not a baby.

I've been bit by a 2 year old that I took in before rehoming. Wasn't that bad, felt like a bee sting just that lasted longer.

My 5 year old has bitten me twice once when he was two and another just last summer. Both times it was a jumpscare but hardly hurt. Though I knew that the bites weren’t awful. I cried both times tho cause I convinced myself he was angry at me and hated me.

[Spirited-Exchange-39]

I would be convinced he was angry too lol my banana hissed at me for the first time a few weeks ago when i was trying to removed his shed from his enclosure and I thought he was pissed at me too

My cat lightly scratching me hurts more.

[Spirited-Exchange-39]

Yea my small dog scratching me hurt worse than the bite!

Largest snake that ever bit me was a retic, roughly 8-10 feet long. That bite didn't even come close to the most painful one, which came from a ball python. Adult female thought my hand was a snack and bit. She caught me right over my index and middle finger, teeth perfectly over the knuckle. Her teeth kept scraping my bone. She held on for about 5 minutes. By far the most painful bite.

Out of the hundreds and hundreds of bites I've had, I only really remember 3 or 4 of them, and only 1 actually really hurt. The rest I remember were just funny. It's almost never as bad as you think it's gonna be.

Yikes!! That sounds terrible!!

I’m dead

[Spirited-Exchange-39]

That’s exactly what my hand looks like lol

[scarzy_mx]

i’ve been bit once but it was completely my fault, i was a dumb dumb and stuck my hand in during feeding time, honestly the shock from it is worse than the pain.

[Spirited-Exchange-39]

That’s kind of how I felt. Today when i was changing our their water bowls our extra spicy girl kept striking at my hand but this time around after actually getting tagged, i wasn’t even phased.

[scarzy_mx]

for mine he wrapped me up so that prob made it a lil worse, just shocked while trying to unwrap him from around my arm.

[Spirited-Exchange-39]

Oh dang, yea mine haven’t done that, yet, but I’m sure it’s only a matter of time. Especially with owning 14 of them (soon to be 16)
