I'll check on this grooved vs non-grooved thing, I was in the understanding they weren't grooved... if they are I stand corrected.

Thank you!
About the grooves – if the pictures are correctly labeled (which I assume is the fact) then the grooves are clearly visible.
From personal experience the snakes I keep are still not large enough to bring their fangs into play as long as you don’t give them time to chew on you. If they might grow to a size as I have seen in the Frankfurt Zoo of something about 180 cm (6 ft.) this might dramatically change and I will treat them as potential dangerous, I don’t want to check their toxicity in a self test…
