A little off the beaten path or wall, you make the call, not sure if any of you have or not, but catching a mudsnake will get you not bitten, but poked by the mudsnake as if he is trying to force his tail through you to make you let him go, lol. The entire tailtip is one large thick shiny black scale that resembles a "big stinger". I have caught many through the years, even trying to convert some over to mice (yeah right, easier to convert eastern hognos) and have never been bitten by one even in the high excitement of the initial catch. But I have been poked to the point I actually was close to bleeding, so forcefully do they jam the tail in. I never got poked by any milks very hard, but I did have a burmese returned by a stripper once because the club she danced at took offense to the "playful" tail jabbing in the wrong place at her club, lol.

Back to the milkssssssnakes... snakebuz
