Thanks for the information. I definitely do realize that these snakes are very dangerously venomous, but I have been interested in them for some time. If I ever came accross any in the future and actually obtained any specimens, this is most definitely a species where I would be using a whole lot of transfer boxes with nice, tight fitting "trap" doors as well as a shield(s) if neccesary. I would be willing to take just about ZERO chances with this species. Do you have any idea why the guy in Texas didn't have success breeding them? Any idea where he got his specimens from? I wonder if anyone at the Daytona Venomous Reptile Expo might have them? Also, since you usually have some great photos that you share with everyone, did you happen to capture any shots of this snake when you were in Australia? I'd love to see them if you have them.
