Yeah I've been bitten by a big male and it drew blood.
A friend of mine got bit by my leo, and yup, it drew blood all right. Not much, just a few drops.

I've been bitten several times by my leos -- no blood so far, although a few of them hurt quite a bit.

My big boy, Smeagol, bit me and no blood was drawn. At the store, a little hatchling bit me and more than just a few drops of blood were drawn :p

i couldn't tell you how many times i've been bitten. I love to hand feed and when i cant find the tongs then i get bit. I have had some blood drawn LOL but not too much. The bites really don't hurt too bad, but i really feel sorry for the pair of tongs i have. they all love to chomp down on them.
Yeah hand-feeding will do it if ya wanna get nipped! I can't tell you how anxious Darwin and Girl were when I hand fed them; and since I can only feed one at a time, the other would nip me, (this is when they were housed together). They're not tryin to bite, just tryin to get some food. Never had any draw blood, but I wouldn't doubt that they can! I don't get nipped anymore cuz it's just Girlie and the Baby now. =/
Yeah have you seen their teeth? GeeZ!
