Not by a big one. But once for fun, I had this two footer in the sink and it was bouncing up and down with its mouth open. So I wondered if it was faking. So I found a little plastic bottle and went to stick it in its mouth. Well the bloody thing did not bite the bottle, it bit my knuckle and bulldoged it. hahahahahahahahahahahaha. I got one good tooth hole on top my knuckle. Other then bleeding like a stuck pig, there was no other problems.

I have been tested by several adults, but not has ever actually biten me. I also respect their abilities. But it could happen. To be tested is to have mock bite. That is mouth you, but not harm you.

I normally go in their cages and hand feed them. sometimes a male will get a little pushy and I simply push them away with my tennis shoe. Sometimes they mouth it too, but have never really bit my shoe either. I learned the shoe thing from an australian reptile keeper. Cheers
