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 folks!

How is the spitting in Naja atra? Are they nervous spitters, or do they hardly spit at all?
I know it mostly depends on the spcimen, but how are they in general?

Hi Jan

A friend of mine recently acquired three of them. They are stunning cobras. I believe these were long term captives and I have not seen them spit once. I have heard that they do spit though but like I say the ones I have seen have been pretty relaxed.

A friend of mine got animals when they were about 2 years old. At the former owners place they spitted sometimes, but now at his place never.

I got mine as little babies and now they are 2 years old and they have never spit at all. But I also know stories of atra spitting all the time.

I had Naja atra from China and Taiwan and the Formosa as well, all were nutters strike with open mouth grap the hook and chew on it. Stunning snakes but. Only the Taiwanese that I got as semi adults hardly spit. The Formosa were the worst when it comes to spitting.

A friend of mine kept ey harldy also a pair of Taiwanese and they hardly spit another friend kept Chinese and they spit allot as well.

I guess its the individual but than again I think the spit are not to bad a spitter stay a spitter

cheers
