New baby corns :)

lol i love it when people do nom nom nom lolz...heheheh

Cool vid! Damn, the other still not eaten, force feed?

It's in a tiny tub at the mo with a pinkie dipped in yolk eil see how that goes over night... Don't hold much hope though

One of the snakes shed today litarally walking in and saw it sliver out of the shed lol was awesome it used the hald cocnut shell the catch on i think .... funnily enough its the one that has never eaten that shed too

Looks like a nice clean shed as well.
With a bit of luck it'll help kick it off eating as well now.

hope so do ya rekon a should try it today? or leave it a bit?

Give it a day or 2 mate.

baby corns are so cute.

they are i love them look good as a bracelet too lol..alive of course

are they constrictors or venomous? Im a nab on snakeparts, that is why I NEED TO GET WRID OF MINE!

deffo not venomous i beleive in the wild (or if feeding live food) they subdues its small prey by constriction

Bex I told you, if you ever want something a bit more of a handfull... I have a female Gabonica waiting for you!!!! With a big big big big smile and some big big big fangs...

lol you still not shoveled that lol

cant get it over my heart

what you done with it then?

Pics of the gabonica? I'd totallly have that if it were a possibility. =p

Will make some.. but I'm not interested in it since I took it in from a certain death from someone not willing to take the risk anymore.

If you keep something like this for show, you're a nutter. Really, they can strike two times, each time their half body length, in the timespan of an eyeblink.

Even small ones.. I'm getting it out asap but I dont want someone that knows even less about snakes than me. Thinking bout going with it to a zoo

pluto wtf are you doing with one of those!? beautiful viper though.all the venomous snakes are lookers.

shoveled it?hahahaha

i love false water cobras.i neeeeeeddd one.

I got it from a friend, a let us say rash decision on his behalf. He didnt really know what it was, just the nice colouring... he said 'oe cool snake' I want one.

Now it has grown a bit bigger and finding stuff on the net about these made him all nervous. It also began to hiss not so long ago and it scared him [hopscotch]... He has had familial changes where kids run around and said he would put it in the ground or give it to me.

I said, ok dude ... pass it on I'll try to find a good home for it.. Now I'm scared [hopscotch] of snakes too and tbh, I have it in a huge styrobox TIGHTLY packed and ok decorated. I feed it with a a long long long stick while opening the box 2 cm just enough to put a dead mouse through.

It is a crazy thing and I dont mess with it, dont even open the box. That is why I dont even have pics. I have no antidote and do not wish to get suckerpunched with a more than painful twist of faith.

Yes i'm a pansy perhaps.

Snakes like these of Bex, are the only wise choice of snakes to keep imho. Dont go venomous ones you 'll get tagged.
Btw I did let a Androctonus mauritanicus crawl over my arm lol... it was an i2 though lol

i might know some people on this snake forum i frequent who keep hots that might want it.
id gladly make a thread for you and your snake unless you just wanna go to the zoo which isnt a bad idea at all.
dude that is one of my fav looking snakes though.your description of the fear and feeding is hilarious. i dont blame you,with two inch fangs and that venom,look out.

im gonna drop this again
FALSE WATER COBRA!!!!

Yeah you don't wanna be disturbing a venomous snake. I also wouldn't keep any animal I'm afraid of as that will make you jumpy and jumpy reactions causes defensive reactions in such animals and that's bad news. I'd use live prey and modify a hatch that can be opened without disturbing the snake. Pulling off a lid is like exposing it and may very well make the snake frightened. A frightened venomous snake is the worst kind of snake. They can't escape the enclosure and will bite as a result of that. Fun stuff

cyanides right.also if they dont have a good photoperiod they can become quite stressed as well.ive heard theyre surprisingly docile in the wild.when people have to move em away from frequented paths they just try to get the hell away from you before they even bite. your gaboons hissing is definately caused by stress.id say something like a locking boaphile would be perfect for your gaboon..and some long snake hooks..but then again id advise you too take it to the zoo.


HYDRODYNASTES GIGAS!!!

yay my snake ate for the fist time today at last can stop worrying about it now lol

Congrats Bex

Thank you was really starting to get worried considering they was hatched 29th may and it fed for the first time ever today lol..... Phew at least I didn't have to take drastic measures
