Old School

Hi. I'm new to this forum and wanted to introduce myself. I've been performing educational snake shows for over 30 years. I keep Boas, Python, colubrids and venomous. I have been biten 3 times in thoose 30 years. I consider a bite a handlers mistake and not a badge of honor. I also run a snake rescue, were we taken in unwanted snakes and find them a forever home. I have 3 different licenses from the DEC to keep all kinds of snakes. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Re: Old School

Welcome to the forum! I hope none of your three bites were from any of your venomous animals!

My 3 bites were from:
1 10' Green Anaconda
2 Western Diamondback Rattlesnake
3 Gopher snake

Every bite was my fault and a lesson was learned.
