A few pics of my snakes from my phone.
-
Amazing! Thank you for sharing :D
I would love to work with hots one day, especially cobras. But who doesn't love their hooded beauty? They are spectacular animals!
-
Amazing! I love the little cobra with the anti-persperant.
-
Great pics. I can't believe they were taken with a phone.
-
These pics are awesome! Hots are so freaking beautiful!

Nice looking animals! Pretty good pics for a phone! Lol, I like how they have their mouths full, to occupy them for a photo shoot. :D

Haha! Exactly.
Especially with the Gaboons once they struck they aren't letting go at all. So you can get really close.

Gorgeous hots! Gaboons are my favorite hot, yours are gorgeous!
-
Great pics and nice looking animals!
-
Gaboons are so freaking cool, what are the green ones in last pic? I'd love to own hots one day but as of now don't have the confidence for one at al.
-
Very nice looking animals. I love the gaboons as well. Id the one eating a piece of chicken or am i seeing that pic weird?
-
Great pics for a phone! What kind of phone is that? Also, gorgeous animals. I love hots...so beautiful...and terrifying simultaneously. Gaboons are my favorite too, but I'm to much of a chicken to ever own a hot. Especially a Gaboon. :P Kudos. :)

Just an iPhone 4s :) And thank you.

Wow, I love all of them! My hope is to someday be able to keep venomous! Especially Gaboons!

Re: A few pics of my snakes from my phone.
Love Gaboons, I used to own a Egyptian Cobra that had its venom sacs removed but still.. Every time is was feeding time or tub cleaning time I would sweat bullets. Soon realized that keeping hots was not for me, and rehomed her.
Still I have a lot of respect for these snakes. Kudos.

It isn't for some people granted. I never feel scared or under pressure in anything I've ever done, which is a good thing as it allows me to be calm :).

Thanks. Gaboons seem to be a big favourite. They're very nice, but do nothing for weeks on end!

Gorgeous collection! None of you Crotalus horridus? For shame! Definitely the most beautiful hot in my opinion, but I am biased as I worked with them in college.
- - - Updated - - -
And I assumed that the little wrecked pinkies were just being dissolved by venom! Was it just the physical damage from the fang or was there some chemical damage there as well?
-
LOVE the Gaboon viper pics! They're my absolute favorite hot! If I'm ever lucky enough to find someone with experience around here to work with they'll be on my wish list. Thank you for sharing pics

Unfortunately no, they weren't mine. I was just looking at them at my house for 8 months whilst my friend went traveling. But hope to get some babies off him next year. No chemical damage, when the pinks are wet it's easily to tear them apart, especially with a half an inch fang going straight through - it burst instantly with the penetration of the fang.

No problem :) Boring snakes though, they do nothing for weeks upon weeks! But they're nice to look at, so kind of make up for it.
-
Awesome, I love the gaboons they always look adorable with food in there mouth.

Those side colors are amazing! And that last picture looks unreal! It looks like another snake hitching a ride on his/her back, way cool! :gj:
More cobra pics please :D hehe Also, what species is your cobra? I'm not very familiar with the different ones.

Thank you :) The pictures are unedited, just taken with natural sunlight shining on them, as that really brings out their colour!
Will get some tomorrow, I haven't disturbed her much lately as she is a new addition. But i've had her for two weeks now, so i will bug her a bit tomorrow for you :P
She's a Naja siamensis - Indochinese spitting cobra.
-
Very awesome. You don't have to bug her, but I will always enjoy cobra pics :D
What kind of precautions do you use when photographing her? I love the hooded up pictures, but does that pose a risk of her spitting? Do you wear protective goggles?
Sorry, for the barrage of questions :)

Nothing at the moment, as she's so small.
She will spit if i get too close, normally all over my camera or phone lol. Yup i wear goggles at all times! Wouldn't ever risk not wearing them, even if she hadn't spit for a year - safety first :)
It's ok, you don't have to apologise!
-
Sorry, I haven't forgotten! I tried to get pictures the other day, but she wasn't having it and just wanted to escape or bite me lol. So I fed her that day.
But this coming week hopefully she will be a good girl, and il get some better pics :)
-
No worries! Don't go getting yourself tagged for a pic hehe ;)

Re: A few pics of my snakes from my phone.
Trimeresurus albolabris female, she is quite dull at the moment as she's going into shed. (Bloody water marks!!!!!)
http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/...ps02b0538b.png
Couple of pics of my male, he shed last week, so he's looking nice and fresh :)
http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/...psfaea343d.png
http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8e4b8db4.png
http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8fded2b1.png
And this is how they spend a lot of their time sleeping lol. Male on top, female on the bottom. (Male was in shed here so looks duller/grey than the female)
http://i1308.photobucket.com/albums/...ps485126b7.jpg
Sorry i haven't got more cobra pics. She's being a little pain in the arse, she will hood for a second and then 'run' off to find somewhere to hide. Still very shy at the moment, hopefully soon she will in a bad mood and won't back down, so i can take some better pics!

Thanks! They are quite good for a phone, but my brother lost my DSLR on holiday! So waiting for insurance to pay out, so i can buy another one - the pics should be better then. :)

Very very cool. :)

I love how grumpy their faces are. It's funny how nature designed them. So many venomous snakes have the grumpy face, looks like they are scowling. Where as pythons just look spaced out O_O
Your Trimeresurus Albolabris are beautiful! Love how they sleep :)

Haha I know! It is odd, I guess it's the head shape of pit vipers that make them look like that.
The male is definitely moody, goes with his looks! His nick name is cranky! Lol.
Thanks :)

I don't think there are any baby snakes cuter than rattlers. I'm biased though, they're my favourite snakes!

OMG you have got to be kidding me. They are beautiful but I don't have the nads for that. Cool.

Wow you have a lot of hots!!! You are definitely brave...or crazy ;)
Do you handle any of them or do you use long hooks when you move them for these pictures? The cobra is super cute, but I have a feeling I wouldn't want him for a pet, lol.
