Which one of your snakes packs the strongest punch?

[Mikoh4792]

For me it would have to be my Albino Ball python which is only 2 feet long. When it strikes the food it startles me more than my 7 ft BCI did.

He's just so fast and I can feel the force behind it.

[slowhite03]

My mexican black kingsnake for sure. When he bites his food, you would of thought he hasn't eaten in months

[Terranaut]

My gopher even makes the substrate fly around in her enclosure. Her tail buzzes as she sneeks up on it. She means business. Can't wait until she is a couple feet longer. Gonna be like setting of a bomb un there.

[infernalis]

My black racer, hands down. That snake is insane.

[Mark Taylor]

It has got to be my female boa that recently gave birth. She had never striked her food before until the day she gave birth, I fed her a large rat she took me by surprise big time as I was just going to feed her like I always have but as soon as she smelt the rat bam I swear I thought my burm was ferocious but that took the biscuit.

[SSSSnakes]

My Gaboon Viper. Hits the rodent hard and refuses to let go.

[smy_749]

None of my snakes strike hard. They are fast, but not linebackers. And they always gently take it without striking if they arent super hungry. But all time, I'd say my cali king. He was a complete idiot when he was hungry

[CK SandBoas]

It used to be my BRB, but he now leisurely takes his rats from the tongs, so i would say it would be my Kenyan Sand Boas....they can and will literally launch themselves at the item while it's still in the tongs, yank it away and flip and coil around the item til they are upside down..

[marvelfreak]

These is a tough one for me. My big 15 lbs Jungle Carpet has actually broke the plex glass on two different cages striking at food so hard. On more than one occasion i didn't let go of the rat fast enough and she ripped it in half. But for pure force and power in their strikes my Bloods and Yellow Anaconda tie. But hands down the one with the strongest punch is my Borneo. He as hit food so hard he knocked his whole cage off the shelf a few times. I now hold on to the cage when feeding. An this is 4 foot cage. He beheaded more rat than i can remember. Plus i never had a snake leave such a big and deep bruise as the time he nail me in feed mood.

The MBK for attitude - she's only about a year old but she will practically climb out of the tank and rip the feeder off the tongs before I can lower it down to her.

The big boa gal for sheer power - at least she waits until we get the feeder down to her.

[Amadeus]

My Hogg for sure. HE has an insane feeding response; you'd think he's a retic.

[Lankyrob]

Sd retic or jungle for me, both pound the rats hard!

[LadyWraith]

Black blood for sure. She has strong feeding response, insanely fast strikes, and so much pure power. Luckily I was holding her tub the time she almost knocked it off the shelf but it felt like I'd been hit by a baseball bat. Can't wait to see how hard she hits as an adult.

[Donnie]

For me it's my carpets but as I only keep carpets and corns there's not much competition :)

Man Bloods sound intense. Lol this is the first time I've heard anything about snakes breaking cage doors and knocking enclosures around.

Whatever snake is trying to bite me.

Me too! For me it is one of my male ball pythons. I have a bunch of different snakes, including a carpet python, and by far, my ball python packs the hardest punch. He is a missile. During hurricane sandy I lost power for a long time. I tried warming up rocks and putting them in the enclosure, and he was trying to kill the rocks.

Yeah for me he is the fastest when it comes to time between the strike and constriction

Yea, they're pretty intense indeed. Probably depends on the individual snake as well but mix a good feeding response with the sheer muscular power of one of these guys and it gets kinda crazy. I sure do make an effort to ensure the proper temp of her food; definitely don't want my hand mistaken for a rat. :crazy2:

You hand feed them? Crazy. I use tongs even for my baby snakes.

To be honest, neither one of my snakes grab their food from tong with any sort of enthusiasm. I have gotten my boa to strike once, most of the time he'd rather just wait for me to drop it, and let him do his own thing. My milk snake has 0 interest in the tongs and will move away from the prey rather than go for it if I try. It kinda bums me out. When I had my MBK he was a monster.

Interesting. Most my snakes strike and constrict from the tong all the time. The only exception being my carpet python who would rather me leave the mouse inside. I just come back a few minutes later and it's gone.

[Little Wise Owl]

My female Ball Python hits the hardest of all my snakes. My female IJCP following right behind her.

[simpleyork]

my false water cobra,
never met a snake that was more food driven, I swear she came from the psycho ward. and when she hits its hard!!!
