Posted by: cpn_aaron at Fri Oct 10 09:58:26 2003 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by cpn_aaron ] This question gets asked often here. They are complacent snakes and rarely act aggressive. Sometimes they hiss and hood up, but when picked up they tend to calm down and slither around. The venom is very mild but if you get chewed long enough you could get some swelling. There's this website (lost the link) of a guy who let his adult chew him for about 3 minutes and he got pretty swollen up. However, they have a poor venom delivery system and weak venom, so unless you too want to try it out like he did you’ll be fine. I've owned several and never had a problem with striking or envenomation. | ||
