Hi Dassie,
Great pictures, please keep them coming, and why do you feel the need to "filter out" the handling pictures?, we want to see them too.
By the way, those Kenyan Vipers look like Atheris ceratophera to me.
All the best
Brian.

thanks for the kind words chaps . I remain reluctant to add handling pics cos they dont necessarliy conform to conventional methods etc as one must bear in mind the location of these snakes and those that work with them are all in africa and education is still to make headway through some of these far out places . free handling of snakes is a comon practise as are bites but if you wanna pick up a gaboon without any aids , chances are , you are gonna miss a digit here and there . So to avoid upsetting anyone , i will try and focus on the pics i feel are more comercially acceptable and focus on the snakes , not the handlers ! I will put some more on when time permits . Thanks again , glad you apreciate the diversity of snakes there like i do !

Awesome pics there dude, keep em` coming & that also includes the handling ones, if at least only to point out how it should NOT be done to anyone thinking of learning about hots etc.

You may be missing what he means here.

I'd have a stab at saying he is on about free handling hots. As in hands on no tools or protection. Generally it's not something that people like to post because, like he says, it tends to upset a fair few people.

Basically what he is saying is they are pictures of how not to handle a hot.
