Emma, It's obvious you're upset because they're telling you not to put you BP around your neck, I'm sure you think it's crazy because he only bit you once and it was probably an "accident", but many of us have been around to see what happens when it's not "Just an accident" and it turns into something real and dangerous. Now I'm not saying all snakes are dangerous, but it's like playing with anything that can do damage, one day it can get out of control. People HAVE lost eyes because of snakes bites, and people HAVE had serious damage when a snake latches on like that, I myself had a boa tear up my arm, I was younger and unaware of the issue. So when some of us see an issue like this, we provide our input so we can help YOU to avoid this issue. If you want to trust your BP and keep it around your neck, then go ahead. But it's clear that it'll bite you in the face, it's done it before, reguardless of the reason it bit you. All we want to do is help you the easy way, not the hard way. That's all.

In the beginning, nobody was trying to help, they were attacking me and calling me a rookie, with beginner mistakes.. lmao..once again, I am in no way harming my snakes..I take good care of them and thats not going to change..If I need to put my BP around my neck to clean her cage then I will..I dont need people telling me that I should put her in a different enclosure or w.e they want to say..Its my desision I REALLY APPRECIATE the help..but that's not why I made this post. Again, when I need help, I post it.

Stating that you are making beginner mistakes is not attacking you. No one is saying that stuff to hurt your feelings, but rather to teach you. Advice does not only need to be given when asked for, and teaching someone is not condescending... I think it's rather nice. If your ego wasn't so big you'd acknowledge that fact.

Let me rephrase..I didnt mean everyone was attacking my there was only one person being pretty rude from the way he was "talking" I'm sure by now you know who that is

My ego isnt big..i just hate when people have to ruin stuff or be a "Debbie downer" Just chill Im not a 12 year old trying to be cool on this forum..I could give 2 SH**s if people on here think "damn shes so cool, a snake bit her eye" (thats not what I want lol)
All Im saying is I know what happened, I know EXACTLY the reason why she bit me. Both times. Why would people try to tell me other things..
I never wanted this thread to turn bad!!
