Espression

Question

We have an expression "Don't bite the hand that feeds you" in English. Is there an equivalent in Spanish?

Answer 1

There's a SpanishDict Phrasebook, which contains only the literal no muerdas la mano que te da de comer.

A WordReference answer has the same, and also no muerdas la mano que te alimenta, which I also found at [Babylon][3].

Answer 2

I agree with Ntaniel, I think you can just translate it:

No muerdas la mano que te da de comer

There are subtle variations of it.
