Stupid is as stupid does!

After throwing a f/t rats into one of my females cages, I didn't wash my hands before trying to refill a water tub for my 6 foot (food obsessed) pastel bci. He latched on to three of my fingers before I could react (luckily). I remained still for about the minute or so he chose to hold on (it was interesting to feel the roof of a snakes mouth...never felt that before). Once he let go, I bled a bit, but felt very relieved that he chose to let go, rather than to try and pursue my fingers as a meal haha!

It hurts more now than it did when I was bit...darn!




and after I cleaned it up:

Here's the snake that did it:
