 Cobra’s????

Does anyone on here own a Cobra?
I’m a big fan of these type of snake
If you own one or more could you post a picture of them for me to see?
Also are they fairly easy to keep?
I have researched into them but i like to know what they are like
From people who have personal experience from keeping and/or breeding them
Thanks very much

Cool
So when you say room you mean a spare large vivarium/enclosure
When cleaning there main home out?
And a hidey hole cave or log aswell

cobras are not hard to keep if you know what your doing, do you have the experience to keep a venomous snake that may be aggressive enough to come at you ? i didnt see how old you where in you profile or what snakes you kept and how long you have kept them so im guessing you havent kept any or havent for to long, if thats the case i would say forget about getting a cobra or other venomous snake anytime soon. mistakes with venomous could cost you, your life. you should have alot of experience with non venomous snakes before getting into venomous and should start off small with copperheads or other less venomous snakes.. cobras are not beginner venomous. nice cobra jeff

 Cobra’s????

I am 18
No i have not kept any snake’s
But have had experience in keeping and handling Kingsnakes, Rat, Corn and Royal Pythons
Fully aware they are not like Cobra’s
Also i never mentioned i would get one
Just that they are my favorite specimin of snake
Just because i said i have researched them and would like an insight from people who own them
Don’t meen im going to jumpin the wagoon and go get one
I may actually never ever own one
Just like them on how they look the way they act etc you get the picture
So not trying to sound funny or anything
But please for future refernce please ask before you start ranting and raving about things
I just like the snake just because you like somehting don’t mean your going to own it

well i wasnt ranting or raving, most of the time people ask how to keep something, handling, temperment is because they want to get it. its good you are not rushing into it also if you decied you want to keep venomous find someone that does it already and have them teach you how to do it safely. here are pics of some of my cobras

sunset monocle cobra poss het leucistic






black and white spitting cobra






moroccan cobra






sri lankan cobra






black neck spitting cobra i sold a few weeks ago

Sorry for seeming like such a cow
Just it’s on the internet you don’t know how to take people’s words
But seriously Cobra’s are my favorite but i would never think i would be able
To look after one no matter how much help or information i knew about them
They just aren’t your average snake they need more
Your Cobra’s are very nice also love the markings and colouring on the Black and White Spitting
Very nice ^^
Thanks very much for sharing and sorry again

i never though i would keep cobras either i have around 10 now, just because somethings hard to do or seems like you wouldnt be able to do it doesnt mean you couldnt learn how to handle them

Awesome wow 10 geez whizz lol
Amazing your really into them i gather
Don’t know how to say this with out giving wrong impression
But you like to collect/gather different species or just your favorite?
I fully understand what you mean with not sure if i’d own one
But im all into learning things about animals
And love to meet new tasks
And would LOVE to get experience with them
But that little voice in my head holds me back
Evan though my body is telling me go for it
>.< I just get so confused easily ^^
But im sure it’s a treasure in having experience in them
But hey like yourself i say it know and later down the line i may have one haha
But if i ever did wouldn’t be any time soon
Got too much on my plate

The Moroccan cobra is just stunning! All of the pics are great! I know I’m far too nervous about screwing up to ever attempt owning one of these but I LOVE seeing pics of all the different kinds, and specially the morphs.

 Cobra’s????

First, sorry for my language I only little speak english(I have problem with writing but I read very well).

Fantastic snakes specially Naja haje and Naja kaouthia sunset and Naja kaouthia l. blue eyes.

I have few questions for You guys. I have some venomous species in my tanks(Crotalus viridis, Crotalus vegrandis, Sistrurus miliarius barbouri, few Trimeresurus albolabris, 3 Bitis gabonica, 3 Echis carinatus, few Vipera ammodytes, Cerastes cerastes) and I had contact with many other species in my friends. And I have a question.

I want to start with Elapids. I bought Naja kaouthia young specimen (40cm), and I have this female by 2 months. I want to buy one more 150cm Naja kaouthia and I want to ask You for advice, because I know, that Young secimen is not the same like adult. I read many care sheets and informations in books, but I want ask You as breeders at last :)

Thanks for advice and one more time congratulations for really amazing specimens and species :)
