More fun with Spitters

This video shows the dangerous & messy task of feeding one of my Red Spitting Cobras who I call "Psyco" for obvious reasons. Watch closely and you can see the venom droplets leave it's fangs. Somethings happen so fast I run them again at 1/4 speed.

I admire you for not smacking the Cobra harder when it struck. I think ill stick with the harmless ones.

Just defending myself.....not trying to inflict pain or injury

[alexthemas]

did you ever de-venom (removing the glands) these snakes?

i had naja sputatrix(javanese spitting cobra) that i caught in my backyard, if i want to handle them, what protection should i wear?

[viperkeeper]

No, I'm against animal mutalation...depends on what you call handling....eye protection at minimum

I know the venom from these is really bad to get in the eyes, but does it do much if it just lands on skin? Just curious because it seems like these would be a real pain to keep if the venom caused severe skin blistering or anything of that nature.

Holy shit!

What an aggressive species!! Impressive.
