[stunning, just a question, i love rbb's and was wondering if the are ok as a first elapid and how toxic is the venom factor with these guys?[/QUOTE]

there hasnt been many fatalities from them, but highly neurotoxic- very painfull bite, needs to be treated asap, they can be very nervous when small, but settle in well as adults. proberly the best starter snake in the larger elapids.
 
yeah i thought rbb's didn't have highly neuro toxic venom, black snake venom does not work like that right? and i knew of one fatality of an infant in the 1800's, just would like some info from someone that has experience with them, i would like a pair down the track but need more detailed info on how toxic their venom is and its effects short and long term and recovery time from a bite for not missing too many days off work kinda thing. please

Cheers Mo
