I've been tagged again,and for the first time my blood has been drawn. The embarrassing bit is the snake in question that did it.
My smallest snake,Ollivander!
Graphic photo's of the wound:
One with an arrow so you can find it lol:

think several stitches are in order, just watch it doesn't get infected and your hand drops off after that bite - you never know |

I would be more embarrassed posting a obviously photoshopped image to make the injury look worse and claiming a nasty bite :P .

You must be traumatised after such a horrendous bite. If it helps you to get over it sooner, I'l organise a courier to bring Olli to me as soon as possible |

Haha! You poor thing that looks sore! ;)
Makes you jump doesn't it!? I got tagged today, but it wasn't my snake. Hubby is looking into Dwarf Boas and Royals. Got tagged by a Hogg Island that was angry at being woken up in a pet shop! Didn't break the skin but I wasn't expecting it so jumped like a *bleep*. It scared the kids rigid! lol
Hubby is now leaning towards a Royal. What a wuss,I still like the Boa, He'd keep me on my toes! lol |

OMG! What did the doctors say, do they think they'll be able to save your hand?
Think you'll need to use a snake hook from now on rather than handle that beast. You wouldn't want to risk such a bad bite again. |

You get a right load of honest sympathy from this lot ... cynical but honest.

Too be honest I've never jumped. Either my snakes are really quick or I'm really slow but I never seem to react when I get tagged! Mind you a Hogg Island would probably get more of a reaction out of me lol. Yep,I had to make it a big arrow to be sure you'd be able to locate the bite ha,ha,ha.
Oh scottishbluebird. Falcor says thanks for thinking about him but he had a nice cuddle with his mum and isn't scared anymore! |

Goodness me if that had have been half an inch to the left and an inch deeper it could have been serious.
You've done well not jumping, Sanke (a Hogg coincidentallyu) has had a few pops at me but the funny thing is she is so fast that she has already hit me and moved away again before I even jump she is just so fast. I actually filmed her strike for fun (and boredom) and if my memory serves me correct she went from rest to strike to recoiling away in 0.1 seconds, human reaction time is double that so no chance of getting out of the way. On the plus note she only ever seems to headbutt me, no teeth. |

Sure as heck made me jump! LOL Yep Boa's do seem to strike very fast! I'd been bitten by Royals before (that hurt!) but there was no real warning with the Hogg, mouth was open but no teeth marks. The breeder said I was lucky! hahahaha! |
