Iwan,

Congrats on the little textilis!

If you have probs with them email me, I have raised a few from neonates.

Also a word of caution..unlike most other elapids of their current size a bite IS serious, another keeper i know was nailed by one about a foot long...left it untreated..was unconscience half an hour later and need 5 ampoules of brown Snake A/V to survive!

Regards,

16 eggs hatched over a 12 day period. The hatchlings are weighing between 4 and 9 gram. Extremely fast and active little snakes. Nearly impossible to get a decent picture of them, they just won't stop moving...

Hey Chad,

It took me half an hour and about 50 shots to get 3 pics I could post ...those little guys seem to be on very strong coffee...

All the best,

Iwan

bachman Dec 28, 2004 04:25 PM

I know what you mean. I never even tried more than a couple of pics before I gave up.

Good luck again, they look great!
