Yes... Rear fanged venomous colubrids.
Either way, I think its more fitting here in this section, if the mods wanna move it they can, no harm done.

So are hoggies. By all accounts, isn't FWC venom fairly mild?

From what I have found, FWC venom is as toxic as a timber Rattlesnake, but they have a poor delivery system. A venomous snake is a venomous snake regardless of how toxic the venom is. Also a Hog Nose bite can cause some local damage.

Weird. I had read that their bites only cause swelling, pain and bleeding.

Referring to the FWC? That is probably true since like Jerry said, they have a poor delivery system and only inject a small amount.

Re: New False Water Cobra
I saw two in person in reptile shops, they have very unique patterns. Congrats on this 'hot' snake.
