Re: "reptile zoo Nockalm", an exhibiton in austria UPDATE 20

it's interesting how commonly the M/F base-color pattern crops up in the mostly-green Asian arboreal vipers Not only in arboreal vipers, we also have that here with lots of european vipers, ammodytes, berus etc. During my last visit at the zoo I got the chance to take pictures of another great exam...

Re: "reptile zoo Nockalm", an exhibiton in austria UPDATE 20

These work well for many kinds of snakes and setups, a great, moist (hinding) place for sub-/tropical snakes and the dry ones look perfekt for savannah setups for example. Some sorts (with the finer stems) even stay green when ...

Vipera berus berus is hard in captivity, that's for sure! But it depends on how you're doing it... In the zoo they are kept outside, during the whole year (with a hibernaculum of course). So you just need to feed them and cover some parts of the enclosure during heavy rain... I don't think that adde...
