Thats just some dumbass that cant lock his cage. I just had wildlife and fisheries at my place yesterday inspection all my cages. Its about time they do that
Venom is an enzyme and needs to be injected into the blood stream. If there are no cuts in your mouth drinking venom it harmless and can not help build up resistance.
T-Mike raises snakes too. We built him a couple custom cages for the snakes he sells in their gift shop at the farm.
He will also be vending at a reptile show we have coming up in Lafayette
I had to vend at a reptile show otherwise i would have vended at this one regardless of it being a one or two day show. If it happens again hopefully we can make it.
