FWC's are highly unlikely to cause any serious symptoms from even large specimens. Swelling, itchiness, and a burning sensation are all most people report from bites, if symptoms present at all. Great Valley Serpentarium has some great looking babies right now, I picked up a pair a few weeks back...they advertise in the KS classifieds, so check them out. Bill is a great guy and a pleasure to deal with.

There is no antivenom for Hydrodynastes, but like I said, it's not really warranted.

Here are some pics of mine:
