Haha, thanks. Yeah, she was wondering what the camera was, and kept leaning forward to check it out :)

Cobras have always been one of my favorite and this one looks AMAZING

Thanks :)

Very nice. :D
naja siamensis I believe?
It seems that all my favorite naja are spitters. A buddy of mine just got a sputatix and a pair of black phase sumatrana that are awesome. I've always wanted to work with pallida. Wish I had the space for such active animals.

Indeed :) thanks!

I actually find some of my North American rattlesnakes are just as active as the spitter. More so actually, my stephensi is always cruising around.

I love spitters too, but I'm not a fan of pallida, I don't like the small hood if I'm honest lol. The whole reason for having a cobra is for the hood!! :)

All the crotalus I've worked with are pretty lazy lol. And although I see your point about the hoods most of my favorite naja are all African and have pretty slender hoods. melanoleuca, and of course Naja nigricollis
being obvious examples. In fact with the possible exception of Pseudechis porphyriacus a nigricollis with a nice red throat might be my favorite species of elapid.

She is absolutely stunning. And a bit scary.... :bow:

if there was a badass pet award I think you have it my friend. seriously, brb going to check out my spitting cobra (puts on scuba gear)

What a beautiful little girl! Definitely on my list of dream hots. lol.

Really? My crotalus are quite active. Maybe because I keep them in relatively elaborate enclosures? They're always 'exploring' going in and out of different hides etc.

I don't mind the other African cobras, I actually really like nigricollis, but never been a fan of pallida.

Not sure what my favourite cobra is though..maybe samarensis and siamensis.
