Re: Cobras as pets...

I see three cobras delt with on a regular basis, each one has a different personalities. The spitter is quite calm, hoods up now again and very rarely spits. The Naja Naja is a bit more defensive hoods and strikes most of the time. And the albino is a nut job she just wants to bite anything that's near her all the time. I stay well clear of them all, now don't get me wrong they're awesome snakes and I could watch them all day from behind glass. But when it's time for to deep clean the vivs I stay well clear and leave it to guy's who've worked with them for a long time. Watching videos is fine but when it comes to the real thing it's a completely different matter, please don't think I'm being cheeky or attacking you in anyway. But has stated above at sometime you're going to have to get up close and personal with them such as, remove eyecaps, retained shed. I've watched this being done, and I was sweating bullets, never mind having to do it myself. Once again I'm not being cheeky, just merely telling you from what I've seen and trying to be helpful
