Do pet snakes bite? Does it hurt when they bite?
Like all animals, yes they can bite. A ratsnake bite is negligible at best, and it’d be far worse to get bitten by say – a cat. I’m a lot more worried about petting a big dog I don’t know that could really hurt me than a little pet snake! But of course it’s always wise to be careful of wild snakes, especially when you don’t know what species it is!
