Yeah its a bit risky but once you work with a snake for a short while its easy to see what their limits are, which then determine your own I really enjoy trying to get pics of elapids though, my computer is beginning to turn into a bloody photographic guide lol.

Brendan.

I seriously wanna arrange a little herping trip with Bren, anywhere at all, wherever ya like. lets meet up go bush sometime.

cos i have no herpin buddies really so i dont get to go out much on herpin trips
most people my age are scard of them

we kept a few species to me sent to bryan fry for venom research but not much then that.

Cool you know you can just attach the image its so much easier I do that all the the time here when I want to use a image in the post.

Actally attaching is a pain in the arse, you can only attach 1 pic each post. we have an image uploader. please read this thread.
