[NaughtyByNature]

this may be a stupid question but whats a Ven??

 

[Kersten]

An elapid. A venomous front fanged snake. And there's no such thing as a stupid question.

 

[Kersten]

These are a couple of Kris' babies.

 

[Haydz]

my dads trying to say show us your venomous snakes

 

[olivehydra]

Very nice mulga, one of my favs. Nothing wrong with the names "Wodderwick" and "Wodger", I think Kwis is wight on the money :wink:

 

[Haydz]

they look grouse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Haydz]

are they taim

 

[Kersten]

Lol I'm the Monty Python freak here Olive There's something about the name Wodger the Wed Bewwy that tickles me....oh that's sad :shock:

Thanks Haydz I think they're pretty awesome myself And to answer your question, they're captive bred, but not what I would call tame. Elapids are deinitely not for playing with like pythons. We love to look at them, but they stay in their cages and out of our hands wherever possible.

 

[NinaPeas]

I don't think any snake is truly tame.

 

[peterescue]

Hey Kersten, I think our snakes might be related. How old is Hoover.
heres Lumpy

I dont have any new pics of the others.

 

[Kersten]

Lol @ Lumpy. Hoover doesn't have such a yellow belly. She's a little over 2 from memory. Kris had her from a hatchling.

 

[peterescue]

no lumpy is a tiger,
I have a couple St Georges about the same age. They are rather small for mulgas though.
Heres an old pic that most of you have seen already

 

[JungleRob]

A couple from my ven keeping days in South Africa....

 

[Kersten]

no lumpy is a tiger,

So Kris told me :lol: Which is why I leave the relocating and elapids to him :wink: She's a pretty girl though. Kris has a St George which is the same age as Hoover and TINY. She just never wanted to eat. Same age as Hoover......but she's 40cm as opposed to Hoover who is 1.1 metre.

 

[peterescue]

I hate you Rob

 

[JungleRob]

that's not very neighbourly.... wait until you see some of our rattlers and other vipers. white-lipped is one of my favourite.
