So did you learn how to hook and handle hots properly from ChatGPT too?Hey man, I just like making sure I say things right, no shame in using tools that help.

"Nice" ChatGPT list that you did no critical thinking on yourself...My bad—I was working with my snakes and didn’t read that right. This protocol is what I have saved in my drive for Ace. Like I mentioned, I need help fully fleshing it out. This is what I put together on my own time for Ace.
Western Diamondback Rattlesnake Bite Protocol
Immediate Actions
- Stay Calm & Reassure: Panic accelerates heart rate and venom circulation. Talk calmly to the victim to reduce anxiety.
- Limit Movement: Have the victim sit or lie down immediately. Keep the bitten limb as still as possible.
Limb Positioning & Immobilization
- Immobilize the Limb: Use a splint, sling, or any rigid support to prevent movement.
- Keep Limb Slightly Below Heart Level: Elevating the limb can increase venom absorption and swelling; keep it low but comfortable.
Emergency Communication
- Call Emergency Services ASAP: Describe the bite type (“Western Diamondback rattlesnake”) and provide location details.
- Prepare for Evacuation: Plan the quickest and safest route to the hospital.
Wound Care
- Remove Restrictive Items: Rings, watches, tight clothing near the bite site must be removed to prevent circulation problems as swelling develops.
- Clean the Area Gently: Rinse with clean, lukewarm water if possible. Do NOT apply disinfectants, creams, or ice packs.
What NOT to Do
- No Tourniquets or Constriction Bands: These can cause ischemia (loss of blood flow), permanent tissue damage, or loss of limb.
- No Cutting or Incising the Bite: Risks infection and worsens injury.
- No Suction or “Venom Extraction” Devices: Proven ineffective and potentially harmful.
- No Alcohol or Caffeine: Both can speed venom spread and complicate treatment.
Monitoring & Support
- Observe Vital Signs: Monitor breathing, pulse, and consciousness continuously.
- Watch for Symptoms: Increased swelling, difficulty breathing, weakness, dizziness, nausea, or changes in skin color require immediate emergency response.
- Hydration: Give small sips of water if the victim is conscious and able to swallow.
Medical Treatment
- Transport Promptly: Antivenom is the definitive treatment. The sooner it is administered, the better the prognosis.
- Inform Medical Staff: Relay any known information about the snake, the time of bite, and first aid already performed.
Additional Tips
- Keep Victim Warm: Avoid hypothermia but do not overheat.
- Stay with the Victim: Do not leave them alone.
- Prepare to Perform CPR: If the victim loses consciousness or stops breathing, be ready to start CPR.
Your still going with this? my cobra nd I dont really care lmao"Nice" ChatGPT list that you did no critical thinking on yourself...
Whoever sold you, a person with no common sense or experience, a Naja needs to be arrested for criminal negligence. What happened to getting antivenom? My god you're a moron.Your still going with this? my cobra nd I dont really care lmao
I don’t know 8 months and no bite from natives, and 2 1/2 months keeping Naja and bitis all on my own never once had a close call, now I might sound like a Moron but tbh if I was wouldn’t I have been bitten already? Not tryna brag but idiots don’t go 8 months without being bitten, I’m either the luckiest person alive thanks to god, Amen, or I’m skilled enough for this hobby lmao.Whoever sold you, a person with no common sense or experience, a Naja needs to be arrested for criminal negligence. What happened to getting antivenom? My god you're a moron.
But that’s like saying you shouldn’t own hots yourself period.. imo that would be a incompetent statement gotta start somewhere I can agree he’s going about it the complete wrong way but once again gotta start somewhere. I remember approx 4-5 years ago I was getting the same response he’s getting “stupid kid” now I’ve produced,owned,and sold more then half if not more then a majority of you will ever keep in you’re life![]()
Bro, can you tell me what he did? I don't know the reason, so I'm curious.But that’s like saying you shouldn’t own hots yourself period.. imo that would be a incompetent statement gotta start somewhere I can agree he’s going about it the complete wrong way but once again gotta start somewhere.

Quit with the bullshit kid, it doesn't work on us who've seen folks like you time and time again. Go kiss up to Jeff, he'll love to "educate" a mini him. On the path your on you'll cause the same kind of upheaval he did with his stunt with the Inland Taipan. What are you gonna do when your Bothrops bites you cause of your idiocy? I hope not ask for av from zoos and professional facilities cause lord knows I wouldn't give you an ounce, and wouldn't let others give any either.
