All I can say on this topic is I have an 8 foot burm. I have always fed her in her cage and have NEVER had a problem with her trying to bite. I just wait a day or two to let her calm down and digest a bit before I handle her. On the carnival show I worked on, we fed the 15 and 23 foot girls in their cages and again, NEVER had any problems of them trying to bite.

This is just my presonal views of course. But if my big girl even hisses when I open her cage, I just pet her a little bit and she stops. Then I can pick her up and as I said, have never had any problems.
