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,

someone told me that these pallidas, with the dot on the head, are local forms. Maybe her is someone who can confirm that, or rebut.

Greetz,
Roland

Maby WW can this!?
Because, within the discription of Naja nubiae and seperation from pallida, he must have seen manny ,,pallida´s´´ and other Najas from the distribution area to seperate the nubiae from pallida. And when there is a typical pattern local form, I´sure he will know this. BTW: For me it is the first time that I see such a Dot on a head of an pallida... Looks interessting!

Hi don`t know WW. But I can wait for him. I don`t think that these are a local form. Sometimes anything with unusual Patterns, Colors or markings is something "special" for the bredders.

Never seen anything like that blotch. Having said that, they otherwise look like standard pallida, so my "best guess" would be that this is an individual/family aberrance, and nothing of taxonomic significance.

I agree with WW. This is more like random occurrance. It could maybe be some variety of colour or pattern mutation. Otherwise very very nice snake. I would guess that when you'll breed them and if it shows again you will know if it is genetic.

Thats intressting! It looks like, that you have an very rare color mutation. Make your snake uniqe! Or you can get an aditional one to build a couple of this. It will be very intressting, it is genetic or not! So keep us updated!

THx WW for the fast reaply!

Hi,

thanks for the Feedback.

It must be genetic. I got a couple of them. Both show this dot on the head. Anyway these snakes are not for me. Pallidas are not really on my wanted list. So I`m just keeping them till weekend.

But interesting that they really seem to be something exotic in this specimen.

Hello everybody,

I assume that these snakes were bred by Guido Westhoff, he bred Pallidas with this dot on the head several times, so if you like them just write an email to him. He sold a lot of them in the last time. They are definitely not a locality form, it is just a result of the right pair.

Best regards

Frank
