Re: peed on me
Well you got peed on your half way to being a herper. Now you just have to get bit.

Re: peed on me
haha being peed on is only the first step. Sounds like you're at the second step now, at least with Ball Pythons, refusing food. BPs can be very picky sometimes, so you may need to get use to them skipping a meal, or two. I offer food every week, same day, if they don't take it, they wait till their next feeding day, which for some of the older snakes can be an additional 9-11 days. I would try feeding again on Saturday, if he doesn't take it, then wait till the next week. Just make sure you're temps and humidity is on point, and that they're being messured by a digital thermometer, and it's just a waiting game, they'll eat when they're hungry. Just keep an eye on their weight, if they start to lose weight, then we'll cross that bridge when we get to it!

Re: peed on me
What are the qualifications of being a herper?

As long as you didn't "enjoy" it, you're going to be alright.

Re: peed on me
What if you have nippy (or plain nasty) snakes and still haven't gotten bit? If it's 7 years my bite-card expired a few years ago.. My pee card has been renewed last Friday though, i have a permanent subscription on weekly-peed-on by my Nicaragua male. Loose bowls have a new meaning once you 'piss' him off.

Re: peed on me
my "peed-on" card renewed almost weekly on cage changes with my SD retic. that little dude will squirt on me every stinking chance it gets. i think he saves it up for me. once again, lending to the "intelligence of retics"...
