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!

maybe you can tell us something about your animals...
I´m very interested in Bothriechis lateralis, how do you keep yours? How old? How often do you feed them? Where have you bought them? Just some information..

Kind regards, Hendrik

ps: which camera do you use?

Hi Hendrik.

Im just "babysitting" the Bothriechis lateralis's for a friend so im not sure of accurate age or origin. But they are adult snakes.

I keep them pretty much as my schlegelii's. Since they live in the same country but in higher elevation so i keep them slightly cooler.
The temperature is 23-25°C at day time and 20-23°C at night. The hottest spot in day time is about 25-26°C but they rarely stay in the warmest place.
Light cycle is 12 hours.
The rain system goes on for 2 minutes 1 hour after the light is on in the morning and another 2 minutes 15 minutes after it gets dark in the night.
The terrarium is fitted with branches and live bromeliads.
For substrate i use sphagnum moss. The bromeliads and sphagnum moss helps to keep the humidity high (70-85% in wet season and 55-70% in the dry season) They are also more prone to drink from the bromeliads rather than a drinking bowl.
I feed them rat "fuzzy's" every 2-3 week.

The camera is my first DSLR - a Canon 40D with a 17-85mm lens. I will buy a Sigma 150mm macro lens for real macro pics and a safer working distance in the field.

Best regards, Finn
