A few of my venomous.

Of course I'm tampering with the camera and neither of my vipers were happy campers so they wouldn't sit still.

Those bush vipers are beautiful! Do they practice caudal luring?

I do see my black squam using her tail sometimes, so I'm sure they do it in the wild.

Black squam is my favorite but dig them all. :gj:

Beautiful collection but I gotta ask.....can you handle these dangerous creatures or do you just drop the food in the enclosure and stand back ;)

Thanks, he was my first squam, and I plan to breed him to the black squam female.

I know, that's really the primary reason I got into venomous honestly. Hands down look the most unique.

She's growing on me a lot, and out of all she's the most temperamental. I'll try to give her water from a lab style rinse bottle and she'll strike at it.

Thanks. I mean I don't free handle per say, but I do deal with them, more so the cobra I have which isn't picture because he's in shed. I'll take him out, and let him roam around a bit, and I have grabbed him towards the tail to slide him or re-position him, but I do it with great caution. I don't really put my hands on the vipers because I find them highly unpredictable, but if I have to I have the pin tool and tubes so that I can do it safely.

I just find I read my cobra really well, although he's a spitting cobra, he has never spit at me, and he rarely hoods, sometimes he does a partial but never a full hood.

That black squam is something for sure...

Cool photos.

Thanks.

Once my Naja siamensis sheds I'll take a photo since you like Naja spp. I'm waiting until I can find annulata again.
