some elapid picts

Nice black whip Gordo.
Here's a couple of pics taken by a local photographer last week of me and a tigersnake.

This snake was living under a house in Dromana.

WOW they are fantastic photos. I bet the photographer was nervous.

Was funny, he had his camera attached to a large pole.
The snake struck out at the camera once and left two rivulets of venom on the camera lens.
I took some footage of the snake at release and will put that up later.
Needles to say, he was happy to get away from us humans.

Some wild elapids that I've come across this year, I may have posted some of these pics before but oh well.

Wow! I just love your pictures!

Why don't you guys put the scientific names above the pictures? I am very used to that. I am active at a lot of forums but this is the one where nobody does that. It could be very usefull for foreigners and people who are new to the hobby And for the people posting the pictures it is just a small effort.

Sorry Stefan, I didnt think of you foreigners and assumed folks would know what they were... I actually thought about adding scientific names but then didn't.

No problem Matt! It isn't just for foreigners but it is also very educational for new people in the hobby.

If you guys don't want to put scientific names above the pictures no problem, but I would appreciate it a lot I post sometimes pictures of snakes which are for you guys exotics and I always put the scientific names with them and I think that is interesting for you guys So we can all learn from eachother!

Btw, I have some new pictures! I will post them right now in the exotics section!

The pic you dont normally see

This is the other side of breeding snakes people dont usually talk about or show.......the disapointments. A Barkly adder dropped these stillborns this afternoon.

 

[Snake Catcher Victoria]

Thats to bad oxy, any idea why?

 

[ShaneBlack]

To be honest Baz i havent put too much thought into it......I just accept it as a part of breeding snakes and put it down to thats just that particular individual snake. She has a history of dropping stillborns and has always been a flighty animal.

 

[lizardjasper]

Oxy, have you ever thought about preserving these stillborns for museums and zoos to have on display? Like in jars? We have an impressive spider, insect and bird collection at our local zoo, and they're starting to add snake skins. Just maybe some place would be interested.
