This isn't a boa! If it bites you, and you put it back, you are "teaching" it that it will get put back when it bites you. Hold on to it, even if it bites you. And don't put it back in until it calms down.

That prey is FAR too big for that snake

On a related note...
Zeke is around 15 inches right now, and maybe 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch thick. My boyfriend's roomate is 6'7" and around 300 pounds. Guess which one is more scared of the other?
I use that as ammo when he makes short jokes.

Out of curiosity, how exactly did you deal with that situation?

It took awhile to get him off. I had to run his head under running water.

Like jazz said...grow a pair. Seriously, if the thought of getting bitten bothers you that much, pick it up around the body away from it's head. Then, just let him "crawl" across your hands/fingers/arms as he wants to, and he'll settle down. I've never been bitten by a corn, but I got bit by a Columbian Red Tail Boa, and let me tell you...it can't POSSIBLY hurt as bad as that thing did(yes...it was entirely my fault).

I've never been bitten by any of my corns..and if I did get bit..I think it would just feel like a pinch or something..
The most aggression I get out of my snakes is when my jungle will hiss. But I don't even know if that's aggression?
Anyway, just pick up the corn. It's just scared.

Ross was just TOO funny and Steve, I"m sure was trying hard to hold that laugh in the whole time!
I agree with all others who say just go in and get the snake, I have Tiaga, who doesn' much care to be picked up but once I have her she's fine. She's about 4ft and always comes out looking like she's ready to attack, but has only bit me once in 4 years, and that was right after feeding(my mistake). I think some of them just want to say "hey, i'm comfy here why do you want to disturb my peace now!"........LOL
