Small Elapids

[wizz]

The Devis are fantastic snakes to keep for those who want something a little different, as for the whips, I prefer the bluer variation.[/QUOTE

ok im not a big whips lover but that is NICE :shock:

Just your common Shire garden variety Wizz .

Indeed Jason that snake has amazing colours, the whip i have has a slight blue colouration will see if i can get a few shots of it.

Would love to see some of your pictures.

NIce snakes, im sure they will be much more interesting to keep than pythons. Does anyone have any red marsh snakes?

Unfortunately with the market it's a bit like take what you can get. So far the best looking whip i've seen was a quaesitor but i don't think i'll be getting my hands on any of them in the near future.

I agree, but with the growing interest in class one elapids i can see them been more widely available in the near future this will be a good thing to the population of these reptiles but then the uncommon nature of these elapids in captivity will go out the door and will end up been as common as coastal carpets.

Here's a few more of the marshie to show it's size at 5months of age, also i think it shows it's beautiful colours of as well

Feed's like a champ, like i said before alot of work has gone into this snake to get it feeding and it has paid off.

Very nice Hodges!

Here is another of the whip snake, she is amazingly calm has no drama's been out and the like of course i still have my doubt's about her as you would with any elapid

 

[waruikazi]

How old is that one? Where did you get her from?

 

[hodges]

Not sure mate, i got it of the gecko keeper himself (ive been told hes working hard on the gecko's)

 

[waruikazi]

Mine is waaaay smaller than that one and not even nearly a little bit calm lol. I put a couple of new pics up here http://www.aussiepythons.com/forum/australian-snakes-37/some-elapid-picts-84193/page-94#post1480868

Great pictures

 

[hodges]

Thanks mate, lucky for me a a friend helped out in the rack department have a couple of good racks that i can use towards keeping elapids in.

 

[hodges]

A few more that i took a few day's ago (feeding time) trying to get some of the whip's blueish colour

 

[hodges]

Another of my female whip, i played around with the image the rendered image with the plain white/black background wasn't so great

 

[hodges]

Wanted to show a few people the blue underbelly of the whip snake, i find it pretty cool
