Ed got my attention...

So I was finishing up changing out the aspen in my Aneries' bins. I put Ed back in and as he always does, he burrowed straight down and dissappeared. Figuring he'd stay put (as he almost always does) I started to slide his bin back into the rack, but the right side hung up a bit so I focused my attention on that side. As the bin was amost all the way in, I felt a sharp bump on my left wrist. Ed, who was making a break for it, must have realized that he was about to get a mighty pinch (yes, I'm giving him a lot of credit here) and gave me a nip on my wrist to get my attention. I pulled him back out and gave him a good looking over to make sure I hadn't injured him with my inattention, but he looked none the worse.

So anyway... be it a natural reaction to sensing impending danger or a purposeful attempt at communication, his well timed nip saved me from reporting that I broke my little guy.

Okay... Off to Home Depot to get them larger snake hides (aka upside down flower pot bases). They've all outgrown their current pots...er... hides.
 
Oh, yeah... as soon as I get back from HD, I will administer the antidote for the toxic bite all afternoon while watching college football.
 
I'm glad I'm reading a post about a smart snake instead of a broken one!! I'm glad he's ok!!
 
Yup... sometimes, there just ain't time to be polite. "<Ahem!> You be about to break me. Please be a good man and cease and desist." = CHOMP!
