Aaron, My experience with Australian Elapids is minimal. For that reason you will not see me giving health and care advice on those.
I have worked with Cobras but again (as I have said many times) they are not something I feel comfortable with, so I won't spout off on that either. Though I do have a Coral Cobra at home (which is a very diffent animal).
I do have extensive experience with vipers (old and new world)and snakes of what used to be called Ophistoglyphs. These are my prefered areas of study.
However, The issues here are pretty basic. I would not recommend a Crotallus durrissus terificus or a Fer de Lance to a beginner, nor would I recommend a Boomslang for a first rearfang.
Common sense. You learn on what is safest and advance. You don't need to be an expert on Australian Elapids to understand that principle.
