Snakepimp that pic is cool, I have a yearling tiger that likes to munch on roast chicken breast. He only gets a small amount and only very occasionally, but when he gets it he goes ballistic. Like a kid with a gobstopper lol.

yes tigers have been recorded eating all sorts of things including pizza!
Feeding strips chicken would be fine,as it is for blacks.

RBB's are my faves of the elapids. If only I could convince my partner that they were such an amazing animal...

The most beautiful of the elapids. Great pics guys. Keep em coming.

Instead of starting a new thread ill ask here

Is it true that they don't actually kill you and just make you so sick you wish you were dead?? Heard a mix of stories


Ofcause if you have an allergic reaction anything can kill you, but just in a normal every day person.

It varies person to person...
A healthy adult will likely just get quite ill, and recover. A small healthy child may recover but could also die.
Anyone unhealthy may die, anyone who went into anaphylaxis shock etc could die..

The fact there are only 1-2 deaths out of 3000 bites in Australia a year though shows how good our medical staff/attention is and knowledge..

Here is one that I took to the vet a couple of days ago.
It was found in Langwarrin Victoria.
