i used to keep columbians and was only bitten a very few times . without fail the times i was bitten was my falt . either feeding mistakes or in once case cleaning out rat cages and not washing before going into boa's cage . i felt comfortable handling my snakes regardless of the size , but i always made sure there was someone in yelling distance once they got to 8 ft or more . not that i felt endangered , just a firm believer in better safe then sorry .
