I just picked up a golden hognose as part of a package deal from a guy that was getting out of the hobby. It is patternless and a has a golden yellow coloration over its entire body. I have only had pythons and boas up to this point and have been told this is a rearfanged animal. The animal is small (about 1 foot long) but I have smaller children that do like to visit my snakeroom. Just wondering if anyone has ever been invenomated, what happens, what dangers, if any are there, and are they usually docile? I handled this one and it did not have any aggressive behavior when I picked it up or when I handled it. I'm just more concerned with my kids getting hit. Thanks in advance.
