what an odd banded krait

after a year of care, she only ate 2 snakes. i mean i don’t mind feeding them geckos, but it took 2-3 geckos for a single feeding because she’s grown quite big now(around 80cm) and an appropriate sized snake prey is more filling than a train of geckos.

in my experience, feeding a snake eater is pretty tricky because a snake’s stomach can get wider but not longer. most size appropriate feeder snake can get up to 60% of the krait’s total length.

Hi all, this is my first post here but I have been looking into getting into venomous for years and have taken a strong interest in flat nose vipers. Would they make a good starting hot and what information do people have on them? Also I should state I have done my own research and talked to some people and am currently looking for a mentor. Thanks all for any help or opinions!
