Thanks Laura. I love my animals and I try to provide best I can.

A rare chance to piss these guys of but they do get angry very seldom. Here is my Water Cobra girl hooding at me:

Jackpot!:

So after shedding today, my girl dropped a huge load and one unfertilized ova:

She is still plump and this is a single egg, so I am hopimg she has some fertilized eggs inside her.

I visited a friend's house the other day and filmed his collection. From a King Cobra to a Black Mamba, he has a very cool list of venomous snakes.

Enjoy:

Here is my male Congo Water Cobra shedding his skin, they are about 80cm, which should be their max adult size but they are just 18 months old so I guess these will grow. The male is in breeding mode I think because he hasn't touched food since he went into the shed cycle about a month ago.



And here is my beautiful leucistic monocled cobra in his new enclosure. Finally he can fully hood without touching plastic and he is making the most of it:

Should have some this year.

In the meantime,

The Samars are up from a month long pre-breeding brumation and they are hungry! They ate two small rats each and asked for more.

Here is a video:

Sad video this week... Unfortunately, my A.hawkei female gave birth to 15 additional unfertilized eggs plus a perfectly developed yet dead baby... Oh well...

Here is a video explaining the situation with an interesting ending:

Here is a long feeding video of the hawkei female. She is taking down rats to get back to her previous weight:



And here are a couple pictures of the Acanthophis laevis pair from Aseki, PNG:

Hi Guys,

So breeding attempt is fully on.

The male seems crazy interested but the female doesn't seem to care much. Yet, they might have already mated, we will see soon...

I really don't know as I have not seen them locked. There were several occasions, where they were all tangled and stationary but tails were under the cage furniture so I don't know. Well, I will know within a month or two.

Death Adders are fine. A.hawkei dropped a bunch of slugs and a dead baby but I will try again this year with 3 speacies.

 

[demonseed38]

death adders. keep me posted.

Definitely let me know when you have babies. I want a pair

Will do...

In the meantime, the orange Naja kaouthia girl is growing up fast and looking great as usual:

Here is the A.laevis pair. The male just shed and is in full breeding mode but the female needs to shed first.
