now that i think about it that was stupid of me to answer that question without thinking about it. So what "stunt" are you planning on doing?

MANGROVE SNAKES

Mangrove snakes are very aggressive and will be tempted to bite, They are almost blind during the day, but if you stick your hand in its tank in the dark, dont expect him to greet you with a handshake!

And are also rear fanged venomous and pack a decent punch when it comes to toxicity and yeild.

... And notorious for being a bit on the delicate side, meaning that they are not an appropriate species to take out of an enclosure and shove into a high stress high stimulus situation in public. Their health will suffer.

Wouldn't it have been a good idea to ask exactly what he planned on doing with the animals before throwing out suggestions?
I had pretty much forgotten about this thread. Sometimes I can be a pretty smart guy though, the quote above was absolute brilliance for example.

Not all mangroves are that fiesty...I have a female who is *pretty* docile, though she will get a bit nasty if messed around with too much...overall though, she has a really good temperment (I've kept nastier kingsnakes). She is CBB though, and that DOES make a difference. They won't kill you with their venom, but it can ruin a day very easily (fortunately I haven't felt this firsthand), and bites should be avoided.

As for being blind during the day (I agree with S.H. on this)...WHAT? They are nocturnal by nature, but that surely doesn't mean they are blind during the day...I'd bet there are very few if any animals in the world that lose their vision by daylight and then magically regain it by nightime. A more accurate statement would be that they have "enhanced" vision by night, which I have noticed myself. They are also much more active at night.

I know others have asked this question, and I have to myself, what kind of "stunt" exactly are you trying to pull? I surely hope that you have put the safety and well being of the animal into consideration before you plan on doing anything at all.

A few options........

Every adult mexican black kingsnake (l.g.nigritus) I have ever owned was a maniac! A feeding response, no doubt, but still quite aggressive, nonetheless. As soon as we open the cage.....whammo! Out they come!

Others I would recommend:
African Rock Python (if you're going for size)
Red-Tailed Green Ratsnakes (bright green, and full of fire!)
Some bullsnakes can be quite aggressive, but usually the WC ones, rather than a long-term captive.
Racers are a good bet, maybe black racers in particular, and blues are reliably aggressive.

Anyway, there are a few. Good luck.......and what is the "stunt"?

robin regarding your comment i was raised calling it an Emerald my father was a herpatoligist so i always went with what he said. So really its whatever you call. its one snake two names. and wild caught ones are very fiesty.ive been lounged at while walking past tanks. but if they are CB then yes they can be nice. just like all other snakes
