Hi Rasmus

Nice to see you in here (Rasmus is the guy who breed these magnificent snakes)

Regards

Jan Grathwohl

:I have never been bitten by mine, but from what I have read their bite shouldnīt be more painfull than from any other small snake. Their toxine is very mild and the swelling should be equal to a mosquito bite. They are totally harmless to humans so there is nothing to worry about.

:Has anyone got any experience with E. chinensis? Iīm looking for info on this species but havenīt found much. Any help would be appreciated.

:Best regards

::Hi

::No never witnessed that, and would actually be quite suprised if it was able to bit over a normal finger... they are quite small (the adults on the pictures are between 35 and 40 cm). The adults are feed small fish
