Re: Some general questions about BRB's

Many ppl have told me that BRB's are out of the blue face biters. They will be fine for years and then they will launch at your face. I always try to be aware of that possibility with mine and keep faces apart but I just wonder if its the law of averages weighing out over years for ppl to come to that kind of consensus. Ours is a sweat heart if he isn't hungry or yoru trying to get him out of a place he is wedged in and doesn't want out, those are the two times I have been bit (my fault). On that note besides a emerald tree boa i think a BRB is the next on the list for snakes I don't want to be bit in the face by (venomous excluded). They have some very very nasty curved teeth, way worse than any other snake in my collection.
