I have been bitten many times by several different venomoids, including a forest cobra and a neo-tropical rattler. The forest cobra bites were a non issue, as the fangs are small and there was not much pain or swelling. The neo-tropical bite was quite painful but still no infection, even though the puntures were deep. I keep a dozen or so venomoids, and about as many hots. I have been keeping them for the last 17 years. I obviously don't handle my venomoids as carefully or would not have the bites to comment on. A good place to ask questions about venomoids and be treated with respect is venomoid@yahoogroups.com ......Robin
