After keeping herps for four years, I finally got my first bite. Not from any of my snakes. From my four-year-old female gecko, Zoey! I reached in to pick her up and clean her cage, and out of nowhere she starts struggling, turned her head around and tagged me. Lookit the blood! Hehe, my first thought was, "Whoohoo, my first bite!" And my second was, "Haha, look at all the blood...awesome."

As long as she does not develop a taste for human flesh we'll be okay... :main_thumbsup:

Welcome. I've had only 3 bites that drew blood, but that's 3 more than I'd have liked. All three of mine have been from males, and 2 from the same male. You'd think I'd learn to wash my hands twice after handling another male before handling him. I'm a little slow sometimes.
