Can' t wait.

Do you have a youtube vid or sumpin, Ryan, of your collection?
 
Hey nice pictures of N. kaouthia's, how many do you have now?

How would you compare their general behavior in comparison to your Aspidelaps? I was speaking to a zoo keeper the other week and I was told that N. kaouthia's are much more pleasant to work with, at least within the zoo's collection.

I have two males and four females of the N. kaouthia. Of those six, one is pretty testy & doesn't hook too well, another is kind of defensive and so-so on a hook, three are great on a hook, and the last one is puppy-dog tame to the point where he acts like a big leucistic pine snake. The testy one is the only one that seems to want to actually bite, though.

The two Aspidelaps I have are all bluff & do strike a decent bit, but they still hook pretty well.
