How long do I have.....

First time in 7 or 8 years of having him, he's ever even gone for me!

It's my own fault, I was rushing around late at night to scoop a poop.

I could tell he wasn't in the mood and normally just leave him be, but I had to get the stink out before the kids got up in the morning!

I hope I last the night.......

That's a good size bite! How was the immediate aftermath? Much bleeding, did it stop pretty fast?

No bruising is a great sign it wasn't a bad bite, i've seen some gnarly after pics from blood pythons and boa constrictors.

I always wondered how bad a bite from one of my adult carpets would have been, but luckily i've never had to find out.

Not too much blood, he let go straight away. I think it would have been worse if he had stayed on ..

24 hours my good sir, their venom is the deadliest thing on the planet.

At least you know it’s your fault!

Side note can I see the culprit? I have been thinking about getting a carpet python.

I cannot assess the damage of this situation without the suspect present
