I dont think that’s the correct way to water your viper… Gaboon vipers are actually well known for initially not being able to recognize standing water. They need movement to recognize water sources, at least at first- especially with newly imported WC specimen that may be severely dehydrated. This method is a good way to ensure the snake is drinking without putting yourself in dangerous proximity to it.AHHH This is way to cute! Tiny danger noodle is so adorable. I love gaboon vipers so much!tailsandkabuki you need this cuteness on your dash right now!BABYxxxkyrareaperxxxLooks tiny now but will be a big fat danger sausage with adorable pudgy cheeksJudging from the background and the method of watering, I’m quite confident in saying this is a clip from Viperkeeper, who is well known for specialising in venomous snakes. I think he knows what he is doing when he waters them! (Watch his videos - his green mambas are so cute!)Edit: his videos are very interesting as he wears a POV cam, so you see what he sees and all the different species he works with :D I love VK! -- source link
