yeah, the little ones don't hurt, even when they draw a little blood. I have bred many BRB's and they all are born nippy. Had to train myself not to pull back....tends to launch the snake across the room.

The bigger ones though......ouch.......got my hand hit and coiled on by an adult BRB, Damn they're strong. Had to submerge the snake and my hand in cold water to get it to let go. Hand was quite sore for a while. Snake was fine.
