Now that is just cool. Congrats on finding her! She looks great! Falsies are high up on my wish list......


Btw, how is she to handle??

[simpleyork]

not aggressive yet, better than my ball python for now, hope it stays that way
she's a horse of an eater as well.

here's the snake that got me into the FWC after seeing it at the Hogle Zoo I had to get me one

[Skiploder]

Did you get her from Naomi?

Now, from what I've read, Falsies ARE venomous snakes right? I think I read that they're rear-fanged but do you need to use hooks/a ton of precaution when working with them like you would any other venomous? Just curious because I saw an awful lot of photos of people just straight up holding them, no hooks or gloves or anything.

That's a gorgeous snake, though.

I would take the precautions necessary as you would a front fanged venomous snake, as you never know if you will react to the venom these snakes have.
And when you do get bitten don't let it chew on you. Does Naomi work at GBU? if so yes it was. They are extremely helpful over there. So if I ever have the desire to get another one, maybe even a Hypo as they are a sweet looking snake, it will be from them.

Naomi is GBU.

Superhypos are the way to go.





Yep, I am wearing a glove. This particular SH female is as cantankerous as the gentleman who bred her. Got another one that is as gentle as a lamb..................this one is a bitey little so and so.

What the hell - the lamb:





Just about ready to go into shed. She's even lighter after shed sloughs.

[simpleyork]

those are some nice looking snakes there, can't wait for mine to get a tad bit bigger.
thanks for posting those photos. just might have to poke and prod at the wife to let
me get another once I finish a year or two of my schooling.
