So far I have kept:

Monocled Cobras (Naja kaouthia)
Suphan Cobra (N. k. suphanensis)
Red Spitting Cobras (Naja pallida)

From the ones I've kept, I think I like the Red Spitters best for their docile temperament, they get used to their keeper rather quickly and for their beautiful color, of course.

However in general, I would say Samar Cobras (Naja samarensis) are the best. Their color is so striking that it blows my mind away. I've also heard that they are evil! The moment I move back to Europe, I will buy a trio. Getting them here costs way too much. (Last time I checked it was 5000$ per pair)

I am attaching some pictures. Except for the Samars, the pictures are of my snakes that I had or still have.

I have always thought that Cobras are the most beautiful and majestic animals in the world due to their posture, beauty and venom but I recently fell in love with Death Adders so now my heart is torn apart .
