I don't have to worry about my death or a costly hospital stay when I open my Venomoid cages. I also really enjoy being able to freely handle my 6' female Eastern Diamondback & my 6' Albino Monocled - they are "puppy dog tame". It seems as if most Venomoids get used to being handled & don't strike @ people anymore. I have had many Gaboons, Rhinos, EDBs, & Monocleds that refuse to be aggressive towards their handlers.
