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

Well Ill start with pictures of the litters from two separate females each had ten babies, after sorting threw the neonates I kept four that were the prettiest gave the rest to friends. I kept the four neonates together for around three months and one day after feeding them separately I placed them back in the enclosure when I checked back 10 minutes later one of the cottons was massive fat and only three were in the enclosure, now there all separated and the little cannibal gets to digest two fuzzies and a sibling in peace. I know cottons are cannibalistic but I never had a problem before until now. lesson learned keep the young separate. Very Happy

I know that they are cannabilistic but I wonder if there was still some scent present from the feedings?

Bob that's a possibility that never crossed my mind, sometimes I get to exited and just don't think, Ill just stick to keeping the babies separate, the adults have lived together for 5 years without a problem, but ya never know.

I had a similar thing with Crotalus cerastes cercobombus neonates last year.

This occurred soon after their birth and before I had the opportunity to place them in separate tubs.
