So on thursday I came home to a very nice surprise. My female White lipped tree viper dropped her babies while I was at work. She dropped 14 but one was dead at the bottom of the cage.
Will post pics as soon as I have taken some

As far as I have seen, on this site especially of people being bit all that happens is extreme pain, swelling and maybe some complications with your liver.
Not trying to be sarcastic but that is what I have learned of them since I had them. If I am wrong the sorry for this, but from what I know about them is that. Believe me I do not underestimate them, I am very careful with them, even if they won't kill me I do not want one to bit me.
Will post pics as well as soon as I get some nice ones, my camera is up to cr@p and taking bad photos.
I will post of the mother as well as the father passed away about a month ago unfortunately so I am looking for someone who will be willing to swop me a new male for a baby or two.
