Thanks for the info,
I just climbed on the forum to ask the same question so I could complete a folder on bite care for the doc just in case.One more question though: Are there any US sources for these antivenins and if so who.Another question: I have some speculation as to the authenticity of the subspecies I was sold. Does anyone have any scalation info or id info on Trimeresurus albolabris .Thanks
