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

The european common adder, Vipera b. berus, is well known to give birth to their young in late spring or early summer quite often, due to matings in late summer or early autumn.
I could watch this phenomenon several times in my outdoor-terrariums at the altitude of 1100 meters.
It's just crazy what happened today morning: One of the adult females came out from hibernation (first sighting this year) and started to release a couple of youngsters. Unfortunately, only one of them was born outside, the rest of the business was done somewhere under rocks.

Greetings from Carinthia, Austria, where berus is still living not only in my terrarium, but around my house as well.

congratulation peter!!!
i love Vipera berus, i sure do - sometime i will build a full acclimated house for specialties like that species (and few others of corse;) ) ...

thank you peter for letting us be part of it...

it is the best - to have the possibility to keep them out-doors in their home range... i just love to see them, vipera b. berus was the first venomous snake i have ever seen in my life (i was about 7 years old and kept already non-venomous snakes), and this species left just such a deep imprint on me...

congratulation again peter! good job!


thanks for sharing the picture!
awesome enclosure, by the way!

cheers
Mario

That's a very good looking outdoor enclosure! Cool
In The Netherlands it is forbidden by law to keep reptiles that inhabit our country. So I'm quite happy I have the opportunity to work with Vipera berus in situ.

Congratulations with the babies and good luck raising them Peter.

Cheers,
Harold
