Northern Floodplains Death Adders are put together again. After last year's failure, I hope it works better this time around:

Pregnant or just constipated? ...

Time will tell... She has been with the male but I have never noticed mating behavior...

Never seen a rat with feathers . Just kidding, I know in the video you even state chick.



I really love your hot snake videos. They are really educational and (imo) you have the most respect for these animals compared to other care takers I've seen on YT. Keep up the great work Naja.

It is a rat trapped in a chick's body. Don't be transspeciesphobic! ;p
