Looking good Cody,
Keep the updates coming, and if you still have a retic or two to show off, I'd like to see an update on them when you have some rare, spare time!

He's a handful now and then but at 3.5 years old I think he's close to topped off in size.
Your boy looks great and those colors are very nice I really like the head!

We added this male yesterday to go with our female black pak.

He decided to destroy his bag while in transit so the first order of business was a bath and dry off before being placed in his new enclosure.

Meanwhile our forest was out cruising night before last, and as someone on reddit pointed out he has a nice Halloween smiley face on his inside hood area.

Gabino hybrid babies growing and maybe going into the first shed since dropping skin at birth.

The female with the Gaboon head unfortunately doesn’t strike at food yet. Thankfully she hasn’t refused when assist fed and we’ve had no regurgitations from her.

Newbie got some food last night, in traditional fashion of a cobra ate without reservation.

That's a real shame...such rotten timing, not getting a chance to mate.

Yeah it was a kick in the groin. I’m not sure his age, but he was in rough shape when we got him. Very kinked from multiple bites from previous breeding seasons before we got him. He was eating then went off food for 5 weeks (they only eat once a month maybe 2 times a month max) but between that and the kinks and stress maybe he rolled. It happens. Sad due to how hard he is to replace but part of it.

With increasing demands for ventilators at hospitals due to covid-19, venomous keepers need to have extra care and caution in place as life saving tools may not be available if mistakes happen. As a result we are minimizing contact with our animals and maintaining best we can at this level.

Well there's never a 'good time' to blow it, but this is surely not it. ;)

I don´t think I could keep anything venomous, but those cobras, MAN, they are beautiful! Their defense postures are super impressive!

How many venomous snakes do you have?

Happy to announce our Lake Nakuru Puff Adders have dropped their babies! Locks started December 21 - January 6th, babies dropped May 6th. Female was kept at 92 degrees and never left her hot spot. The parents are German imports from 2016. Really proud of them!

Very Cool. 17 is a lot compared to Balls. Is that near an average clutch size?

Small side actually. Puff adders produce the largest clutches of any snake species on record with the most being 146 babies dropped from a single female. Most clutches average 30-40, she had 7 slugs with the babies and she’s just under 3’ so for her I think it’s par for the course.

Re: Venomous collection
Found this on Wiki. No word on how big the female was, but there is also a Youtube video of a female Kenyan with *147* babies. She certainly has a lot of babies with her; not sure how they counted them, lol.
"A Kenyan female in a Czech zoo gave birth to 156 young, the largest litter for any species of snake."
