My baby bloodred had pooped so needed to clean him, moved his hide and he's in blue!

I had no choice but to get him out so picked him up and he did his usual tail whipping and proceeded to poo everywhere!

Then he decided to carry on tail whipping and locked onto my thumb! I gotta say, I hardly even felt it! It was more the shock of him actually doing it that got me the most

That's good in a way, at least you don't need to worry about being bitten anymore. I haven't been bitten yet, both my boys are far too chilled to be bothered with that. I'm weirdly looking forward to it so that I don't need to wonder what it is like... Maybe girlies will be more inclined to have a chomp. Haha.

The famous last words of a person about to be bitten.


I've been head butted a few times by my lot, bitten by a few hatchies, a Tarantula bit my finger nail blocked its assault, I have been bitten by just about every bit of livefood going and then my personal favourite, bitten by an Adder. The most painful bite of them all (with the exception of the bad reaction to the Adder bite that tried to make my leg fall off a few times) was a beetle grub, that savage beast really got me good, though I later pulled out its mandibles and gave it to Sam who turned it into a ball of white powder.

Hehe, yeah I was maybe tempting fate a bit with that. I've been bitten/nipped by almost everything else...mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, cat, dog, horse, pig, iguana, monkey, penguin...the list goes on and on. Never by a snake though...I'm curious as to what it is like tbh.

Yup, ditto. They have a nasty kick too.

Weirdly enough, I think a mouse has the worst bite. They sting for weeks afterwards and if they manage to chomp on something important, tendons and whatnot it can swell up badly too. Plus you don't get any sympathy from a mouse bite, people tend to laugh at your heavily bandaged+swollen hand when they realise it was 'only a mouse' that did it.
