Re: Venomoid Question

I'm not sure what else there is to say about venomoids. I'd say most of us are against them due to the cruelty of procedure, the lack of qualified veterinarians who will even do the surgery and the obvious possibility of the surgery not being done properly. Working with a venomoid will not prepare you for an intact venomous (at least I think that's the consensus here) because you still know you don't have to worry. In my book, if you want venomous, get venomous. Get intact venomous....but do your homework. Work with a reputable person with venomous experience if you can. Read, practice safe handling with your non venomous species (may as well use them-it's the same mentality as a venomoid) until you are competant with a snake hook, tongs and moving the snake from one place to the other without a bite. For what it's worth, I don't think I'd like to be the one that helps perpetuate the sale of mutilated snakes by buying one of these.
