Corn Snake
Postman:
I've seen gaboons in private collections - most states don't even require a permit to keep "hot' snakes ??? i think i remember a posts here about cobra skins on a bow, and have seen african ball pythons used - they're pretty common as "giveaway' snakes when people get bored with them.
JW_Halverson:
The gaboon backed bow in question is real, no funnin'. The skin was collected from a deceased resident of Reptile Gardens, bless his legless li'l soul. O:)
El Destructo:
I have done Cobra and Ball Python....and posted them here and P.P.....but all of My Skins came from Indonesaia from Snake Farms...not wild kills.....they are mainly Meat Farms...and they sell Skeletons and Skins....nothing is wasted from the Sankes
Ranger B:
can you give me a link to buy some skins from?

Ditto to what mullet said. They used to be quite common down here. When I was younger, I would climb coconut trees to get some coconuts, and usually found one or two up there, plus some scorpions. I believe that they are also constrictors. Make neat pets. Very pretty. Of course I was always bitten by the time I got it home, so I just let it go. I am like Mullet, I would not want to kill one, but if I found one dead, I would shuck it's hide. I have a Cobra hide here somewhere. I got it off of a belt, I got from a store with some Indian guys running it, and they had some Indian stuff there, and the belts were part of the stuff. Very cheap belt, no leather, just folded cardboard, wrapped with snake skin, and a buckle. Didn't pay much for anyway.
