Re: Introducing little Misty!
Yep, can't cuddle these guys- they are adorable, but they'll cause a lot of pain. Eyelash vipers generally aren't lethal (they can be in some cases), but the severity of a bite varies with each person, the size of the snake, and how much venom it injected.
Their bites respond well to Polyvalent Crotaline Antivenom (Cro-Fab and the like), so there's good treatment, but I still wouldn't want to get hit.
They are cute little buggers though, and they stay cute- they look adorable even as adults. Pudgy cheeks and little eyelash-type scales. They look like little divas....and they act like it too! :-O
