:As for venomoids calming down, almost any snake will calmm down with frequent handleing.

That is true, any animal will eventually become "tame" around people (i.e. not try to kill them every time they come around). However, this big girl venomoid monocled that I have was obviously w.c. recently (she arrived with exotic ticks and much scalation damage), yet she's the most docile cobra I've ever seen. The other big monocled I have, however, that came from ERJ, is as I said in my earlier post, a nightmare! He's probably comparable to your friend's black pak. By the way, what is it about those guys? It seems like everything I hear about them talks about how crazy they are. Probably a snake I will never keep....
