last week I was feeding my ball python a f/t rat for the first time, he didnt sem interested in it, so i went to pick it up with my feeding glove and as soon as I knew it he was on my hand like it was food, I didnt hurt (I had a leather glove on) ot was more funny, every time i moved my finger or wrist he would try to put the squeeze on me
All in all snakes are pretty docile, and biting only really occurs when you smell like rat, on the other hand I hope you can deal with your savannah when he gets big, those are loose cannons, ive had big ones rip skin off and draw more blood than the bloood banki s allowed to, those are aggressive animals that are completly unpredictable.
