Athena at some point will be going to a new home, as her spot is going to be for a water cobra(Naja annulata). She also is going to get like 7-8 foot, so working with her at that size in the room is not something ideal.
I like all-black snakes a lot too, btw...I've just never seen a cobra like Zeus before, I guess. And I can see where working a 7-8' cobra in tight quarters is inviting trouble... (good plan!)
