They used hatchling rat snakes as baby King cobras (Ophiophagus hannah). By the way I keep two young black milks and cobras but I gave my male cb eastern indigo to a local university for herp education, recently I've felt indigo withdrawls.

: Paul,

: Saw the Mummy Two(Good movie BTW) and if I recall correctly it was a Black Milk(Gagaie)
: If it HAD been an Eastern I would have been ranting in the movie theater to ALL within earshot distance,"Hey!THATS an EASTERN INDIGO", and probably have gotten kicked out.LOL :)
: Actually, with as much money as movies cost, you'd think they'd use REAL venemous snakes in their shots, even venomoids, whose venom glands have ben removed..but I have seen Pueblan milksnakes being used for coral snakes, and ratsnakes for Vipers(Go figure!)
