This guy is Albert Kellian he lives in Fla. I saw him on the advertisement for Animal Cops In Miami Fla. He was holding the cobra.
This guy in the early 80's bought a retic and a burm from a friend of mine. Scott Vasques. The 2 snakes later produced ONE of the first, if not the first bateatters. Hank Molt told me he borrowed a couple of the bateatters from Scott to take to a show i believe in Texas. Where they got there name. Hank said he was just joking around.But the name stick. I have an article written by Scott where he gives the story of how he sold the pair and how they almost lost every egg because the guy who set them up had them to wet and to hott. If i ever get it scanned i will post it.It was written in the early 80's. The only regret Scott had was giving credit to Albert who later stole alot of animals from him.Including 2 bateatters.
