Hes latched on to me me a few times..had to get a tetanus jab....Its like a rattrap....with razor blade and needles...but it can chomp.
I had him round my shoulders once and he got round my neck and put the squeeze on...amazingly powerful.....not trying to kill me..just holding on to a moving branch so to speak.....
Stopped off at Kianga to see a whale out at sea.

Merle gave me a hand to clean the fungus off Big Meakoonas face.

Careful Merle don't touch that thing...it just fell out of meakos hair...could be poisonous.

I had a ball python a good while and I loved him. He was about 4 foot long. He would ride around my neck and stick his head out of my beard. Lost him when my house burnt. He would also crawl through the dish drainer when I’d give him a bath. He never bit me, but he bit the wife, who is scared of snakes. He got out and she happened to find him in the trash can. She was going to be brave and catch him. I figure he was sleeping and when he saw her hand, he latched on. She said she jerked her arm back and he was stiff as a board in mid air.
 
Merle is probably trying to be a gracious guest and put on a brave face ... but I'll bet you 10 to 1 he's already called Barrett multiple times about sleeping in a house with a wild and deadly beast .. and then there's that snake in there too!!!! :oops:
 
The guy with beard looks like hes "been up the mountain" a fair while..

LOL! 😁 Harrogate Carnival mate, some more info, and more pics, in the Guardians thread 👍 I had the big buck right in my face, eyeball to eyeball! Raised a few chuckles when I loudly exclaimed "Booga!!" 😁 I'll look out for pics 😉 Great pics there 😎👍
