My new male Japanese Dragon eel

[reptile guy]

Yep same with snakes they say don't pull back but how can you not when you see a mouth full of teeth flying at you lol. You try not too but just a natural reaction. Have you seen the clip of the guy hand feeding a large moray and it takes off his thumb then they stitch on a toe to replace it? I think I'd rather be thumbless than be toe thumb guy lol. It looked horrible

You still pull back
