| Beautiful specimen.
May I ask You how mild/aggressive those are? One reads so many different statement of their behaviour ... | |

| This particular animal huffs and puffs quite regularly spreading a small hood and striking with it's mouth closed but calms down quickly and is easy to handle on a hook.
Has a great feeding response.
Lovely animals. | |

| Thank You! Taking into account the relatively mild venom (for a cobra), the rather small size and the easy feeding it sounds more and more like a "starter hot" for me. Can't wait that my children get a bit older  | |

I have a kopple of A. cowlesi at home and can say that for some one like you Aspidelaps spp. wound be a great hot to start with. do aspect a lot of character and personality with these little rascals! and they are fast... But realy nice snakes to keep  - Quote :

I would really like to see a picture of the whole tank setup?!It looks great! Again, Really nice animals! But I'm very interested in that plant/grass that you've got in the back of your first few pictures? Can you make a picture of the whole setup? Or give me the name of the plant?It looks really nice! | |

Or give me the name of the plant?It looks really nice! Thanks Jan, That is a dry indigenous grass i found around my area. It is dead and i simply dug it out and dried it out even further, i'm afraid my indigenous plant knowledge is not up to scratch. | |
