Sorry, that is what I meant, although I used to think it was both fangs and venom glands that were removed.

Still not a fan, though. I've heard of people doing this surgery as a home job, heard of botched surgeries, glands growing back, infections, etc.

Not to mention that these snakes use the venom to start pre-digestion on their prey.

Just not a fan of modifying animals to fit our lifestyle. Esp. by taking away an animals defense. Such as de-clawed lions, or big cats with teeth and claws removed, etc.


But ENOUGH about that, LOL. Didn't mean to derail your thread.


The pictures are awesome. Love the plants !!

And the copper head is very unique. They are always beautiful but never seen one this color before! I have to say, that's my favorite !
