[Bung-Eye]

[Ozzie Python]

but you have such beautiful bredli sdaji. i think it's time for you to get another pet hate

 

[warren63]

People next door have a little yappy dog and have never seen them pet it, walk it or generally interact with it and i see that more of a waste of a pet,

Lots of people messaging me about this thread! I've been asked to repost a copulation picture from a few weeks ago (I don't think I put it on this site back then). Fingers crossed for babies in a few months Death Adder courtship, intromission and copulation is amazing to watch, it's so different from what pythons do.

I love watching my adders eat.

 

[Sdaji]

Do you want another one? Yeah, you want another one

holly cow dude i love the pic when it bit some 1 that would of hurt. I watched a docco on death adders and it said that they are the worlds fastest strikers like when you blink they can strike and retrieve in there normal position by the time you open your eyes again. I think that is what makes them deadlie. It was on the foxtel show snake wranglers i love that show.

Here is a Pilbara specimen of Acanthophis wellsi, I have sometimes seen Acanthophis pyrrhus sitting in the top of spinifex at night time.

Old Zen saying... "a death adder in the hands of an experienced handler is safer than a vehicle in the hands of a male P-plater aged 18-25"

having just got home from work and having a crap day due to teenagers i would like to say to the initiator of this thread "why would anyone keep a 15 year old"....

...additionally, a good reason for keeping adders is so that you can make the following threat...
"watch yourself kid, other teachers will make you write lines, I'll put a death adder in your lunch box"

Look at the cute lil face.
Who couldnt love these guys.This is one of mine having a yawn.(old pic)

Beautiful pics and animals sdaji!! Don't hold back, I'll sit and look at your pics all day if you wanna keep posting em.
On another note, anyone have any pics of those scale-less DAs. I saw some pics in Reptiles Aust a while ago and have wondered if their popularity has taken off amongst ven keepers?
