Re: Naja kaouthia

It's clear, but they are way too quick. Terrestrial hots scare me way more than arboreal ones. The arboreal ones stay on a hook usually- the terrestrial ones you have to tail and they flop all over.

I had mangroves for a while. They were quick, agile, MEAN buggers...but being semi-arboreal they hung on a hook well and generally weren't a problem once they were hooked and out of the cage. I actually never came close to getting tagged, although they gave a nice threat display. I think the only hots I'd ever consider would be small, arboreal viperids, like eyelash or Wagler's vipers. Even then, it's cause for careful contemplation and training before I'd get one.
