Hi Everyone,

I am new to the forum but not to the hobby. I was wondering if there are any journals or literature that anyone can recommend about the biology, physiology, and ecology(plus captive needs) of the kraits in general. And specifcally of bungarus fasciatus and multicinctus.
As far as wikipedia and this website http://www.kingsnake.com/elapids/kraits.htm go the information are relatively minimal. And much of modern journals online talk about the acetylcholine receptor binding alpha -bungarotoxin and other neurotoxic constituents in their venom, in addition to clinical discriptions of cases of bites.
Also could anyone recommend a reliable source for purchasing these animals?

Thanks again for everyone's time.
