Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

Hi all,

As you can see from the below pictures, the king is doing well – he’s now feeding on pinkies with a very small piece of corn snake attached. The picture of the pinkie, has the largest piece attached - he will actually take a pink with a very small piece of skin on the nose.

Some of you know, this guy was given to me by a friend, he is one of only two hatched out in the UK, he was born with one or two lumps on his back -so far, he seems to be okay and there has been no problems with them. Fingers crossed he will stay that way.

Cheers,

Dave

It is probably dissolvable thread used in stitches. Definitely not wire , right?Smile.

Hi guys, thanks for the comments - the piece of snake is just stitched on as you say M. Yasin Cakmak.

Fingers crossed he will be on just rodents soon, I dont mins stitching small parts of snake on though, the cost is small.

Cheers,

Dave

Nice and congrats for this beautifull king! Does it digest the pinkies well? How are the feces with that kind of prey ?
Hope to have one of this snake one day !

Hi Patrick,

They seem to digest just fine, normally in a 2-3 days.

Cheers,

Hi guys,

The king fed today on 4 fluff mice just dipped in a little corn snake blood, my friend Tom has added this video to his photobucket account, the video is not brilliant because I used my phone.
