Red Spitter feeding

[dooksucks4ever]

Lol does he wise up at all if you feed live mice?

[viperkeeper]

@dooksucks4ever The video is 5 years old...way past this stage

[AtarahDerek]

So what would you say is the most intelligent species of snake? Obviously it's not this guy.

[viperkeeper]

@AtarahDerek King Cobra's & Mamba's

[badleatherlad]

some snakes are pretty fucking stupid really, aren't they though ?

[viperkeeper]

@badleatherlad Some are challanged.

[badleatherlad]

@viperkeeper yes....but beautiful, nonetheless :)

[theonetheonlyjustin]

do you have false water cobra

[viperkeeper]

@theonetheonlyjustin No, why!

[theonetheonlyjustin]

@viperkeeper just wording there rare fans snakes

[stars1976]

[kevinlee41300]

lol the snakes like, no, for me? you wouldnt! but wat if hes serious?? there has to be a catch?! no really? foR MEEE??? 

[MrAdamw48]

hahahaha

[figueroaedgar15]

how do you get a venom snake licence... please tell me!!!

[viperkeeper]

@figueroaedgar15 varies from state to state, some states are totally banned.

[TehModder61HD]

@figueroaedgar15 in sweden an more countrys its legel if you take away the venom.

[viperkeeper]

@TehModder61HD Too high a price to hurt the animal.

[TehModder61HD]

@viperkeeper in sweden we take the venom away but they get a drug so they dont feel it

[viperkeeper]

@TehModder61HD Stll NOT right to do to the snake.

[TehModder61HD]

@TehModder61HD i now but they are to dengures fail anyway they are to dangores

[mikeybhoywan]

@TehModder61HD the drug they are giving takes away the operation pain but imagine someone diggin into your head nd removing 2 large glands it still hurts the snae as the drug oesn't last until its healed and the snake feels alot of pain when initially getting back into feeding if you can't safely own a Hot (venonous) its probably better you don't own one at all. Alot of the time the operation leaves gland cells behind which then means the snake can still produce a little venom

[Lolzorpantz]

@ipodkbc an expert that knows nothing of cobras, then you act like a smartass and try to look better than viperkeeper? hes had these animals for a very very long time i dont think he needs your help. go find some 12 year olds page and help him out instead.

[ipodkbc]

did you remove the fangs so it can't spit the venom out at you. and if you go to my channel i've been a snake expert for 7 years and you have questions about any snake i know the answer. and one more question if it's a cobra wheres it's hood around it's neck

[viperkeeper]

@ipodkbc First, I would call anyone a jackass if they called themself a "snake expert" after only 7 years, so don't feel special. I've been at this longer than you have been alive. All of my snakes are as they are found in nature. I feel removing their venom apparatus, nothing more than animal abuse. If you were such an expert, you would know they only show their hood if frightened.

[hogarchy]

@viperkeeper

some cobras hood right before they attack their prey.

but that guy is a tool.

[SHADOWCRAWLER1995]

@viperkeeper Ay you are completely correct man.but you dont have to be rude

[mikeybhoywan]

@SHADOWCRAWLER1995 that wasn't rude just an agressive answer lol

[fvar86]

@ipodkbc you are just a jerk expert! obviously you have no idea of snakes!

[iansheridan123]

@ipodkbc Just what kind of special retard are you? I've been working around snakes (and other exotic animals) for a lot longer than you and I'm still a beginner! Where's it's hood? In all the time I lived in Africa I only saw cobras hooding twice and that was because they were cornered in buildings, but I saw a lot more than two cobras! Some bloody expert you are!

[0Zer0RS]

@ipodkbc you fucking dipshit im 13 and i know more than you you stupid jackass "wheres its hood around its neck" you a god damn jackass that is not an expert and you dont know shit

[bullsnake70]

@ipodkbc Hahaahaha dude are you serious? Anyone who has been around snakes for seven years should know that the hood won't be shown unless the snake feels threatened. I know viperkeeper already pointed this out...but wow.

[mikeybhoywan]

@ipodkbc a snake expert for seven years yet you do not know that a cobra only shows its hood when threatened most cobra loo like normal snaes until they are pissed and by that time for you i mean it would be too late just a simple question i don't want anyone else to answer but whats the difference between viperkeeper and you? A: he knows what the hell he is talking about you on the other hand slober more shit than livestock farmer deals with

[singleservingfilm]

forrest gump snake

[AndarLucifer]

I have realized that some species of snake just don't feed well. I am not sure if it is from captivity or if it is the same in the wild. They all still seem to manage just a little more stubborn lol.

[MoreliaPythonidaefan]

You prob will be able to help me with this question. I once saw a species of cobra, or at least I believe it was a specific species of cobra that was a light brown/tan body color and had a distinct red stripe around the hood. I thought this was an Egyptian cobra however I have been unable to find a pic of the one I am thinking of, all the pics of Egyptian cobras show a black stripe around the neck. The picture I saw was of a young specimen, I wonder if that has anything to do with it. opinion?

[BrianMcGooch]

Do you wear goggles when handling or feeding a spitting snake?

[viperkeeper]

@BrianMcGooch What do you think?

[Aldind2x]

Why don't you feed them live?

[BOGudN]

@Aldind2x Because then he would have been charged for animal cruelty he needs to take dead mise that have died from a natural accident or one that got to old

[viperkeeper]

@BOGudN NO, I would not be charged with animal cruelty. Just more freaking spin on the world by morons in government.

Known Facts of life:

Animals need to eat to survive

All food items are die before or during the eating process.

Death is as natural in the world as birth

People need to stop fucking around with the natural order of things, just to make themselves "feel better'

[kiduprise]

extremely dangerous to keep as a pet. it spits and are fast strikers. but not as fast as a viper or mamba

[MrReptilez]

where do you live

[okamiotaku]

aw what a cute little snake

[raul211able]

you get venomous snakes in pet shops or you buy them from the internet??Do you need any permision from police or something else to keep those snakes?

[viperkeeper]

Not where I live.

[raul211able]

where you get venomous snakes????

[viperkeeper]

here & there

[TheSmartestOneHere]

Cute snake!

[Travide]

hey I have idea for you if you never tried it already poke a hole in the head of the mouse so that a little juice comes out, that the only way I could get my baby snake to eat.

[viperkeeper]

It's called "braining" and I am well aware of that trick, thanks

VK

[Travide]

Yeah I noticed, I would be the one asking you for advise, after I saw how many awsome videos you have, I still have lots to watch, Great Job nicely recorded.

[buttlord123]

very cool cobra, awesome vid

[The18Mafia]

Im glad that you take the time to make these videos so that the world can see the feeding behaviours of various snakes.

[viperkeeper]

If I were rich I would not have to work for a living nor support all of the people who don't work because they are too lazy.

[Bogmire11]

Lol i like it

[bucs65]

u tha man vkeeper! I hope 2 be getting one of these in june!!

[racoon965]

i had one of thoose but we sold it cas it was sooo agresive and the first time i fed it i was a dick and it spat in my eyes but i washed it out so i didnt go blind but it hurt (A LOT!) and it just tried to bite me so many times anyway goodluck

[looijz]

hahahaha thats the risk of a dangerous snake like this ^^

[megakiller888]

Maybe it was because the ones in the wild didn't get their food from the fridge.

[sickwiditxxl]

naja pallida, naja nigricollis. equally as fun to be bitten by.

[7muktar]

what a beauthiful snake! where did you found it?

[soulstealer9y0l]

How much did you pay for it? I've wanted to get one, but couldn't find one under $3,500.

[catman0111]

dude, snakes sense heat signatures from their prey,the don't rely just on their eyes. A heat seeking snake has to inspect it before realizing its food

[viperkeeper]

Dude, WRONG! Elapids do NOT have heat sensors. Pit Vipers do, a completely different family of venomous snakes.

[catman0111]

o sorry im a snake noob lol

[awesomez67]

VERY good youre perfectly correct viper

[t3nu]

not all snake sense heat signiters

[IMCOnAir]

a King Cobra which falls aside. Ha... Hey, Red one! You blame the high aestetique attitude of your Indian Colleagues. Ashaming.

Maybe that was not the best day of this cobra, stood up with the wrong leg.

Anyhow, interesting clip which shows me, Snakes individually have their different characters and personalities. Thank's ViperKeeper !

[norte4life]

cool do you breed them or just collect them

[viperkeeper]

I don't breed this species, too many available.

[XtremeSports777]

I love the shiney affect on the belly. Truly beautiful.

[SPINOSAURUSKING]

Beautiful cobra!!! You sure are lucky!!!

[Burnmaster]

naja pallida !!!!!!!!!

[viperkeeper]

I've been doing this for more than 30 years. Sounds like you don't need to be keeping snakes.

[Bboybitz]

r u a professional dude?? Piz answer ASAP where to buy/get snake?

[my83merc]

get another hobby.

[PopeCap]

Interesting. Perhaps these snakes have poor eating habits because of being in captivity. Their parents don't really "stick around" to teach them anything, correct? Captivity has some adverse effects on any living thing, so it might be why the snakes are kinda... slow.

[HerpboyFLA]

there is one specie of snake(which specie though I'm not remembering right now, Skapsteker I'm thinking)which guards over the young but doesn't teach them anything. Pythons and some other snakes guard(to a degree) over the eggs but still no teaching involve so everything snakes do is based on instinct. From what i've seen of Al's red she sems pretty goofy which may be the result of her individual oddball feeding habits.

[nano511]

Their parents also don't stick around in the wild to teach them.

[2dead2die]

Your videos are SO amazing!

Entertaining.

Educational.

And, Sometimes Rather funny!

Thanks 4 posting them.

And Keep em Comeing !

[viperkeeper]

Thanks!!

[najakaouthia]

I think I will add this species to the list of snakes with A.D.D. along with pueblan milk snakes, chain kings, trinket snakes, and the western hognose snake. Most hotties have a really good attention span too, from what I've seen.

[MedusasOwl]

What a cute little spaz that cobra is! So curious and confused.

[sherlynsjc]

the mouse is so disgusting...bt the snake is cute...lol
