Thank you Gav.

I just added this forum this morning, and would like a list of reptile vets. This is a good start.

In Boksburg try 011 9179978

Dr Cliff Bull. He used to keep and breed snakes so he has far more interest than most.

Your best bet in Maritzburg is to contact Dr Mark Penning who is the CEO of Ushaka marine world. He could either help you or advise you. Very helpful person too.

I can recommend Dr Mark Kallman of Helderkruin Veterinary Clinic. 011 764 2542.

He is not too far from Randburg and of course is in Roodepoort.

Dr. Charles Niebuhr - (012) 998 4314

Serene animal clinic, Serene str. Garsfontein Pretoria (corner of Serene and Issi Smuts str)

He is not a reptile specialist but he has experience with pet snakes and is willing to help with venemous snakes... as long as you can control the 'sharp end' :-)

Only guy in the PTA east area Ive found willing to even allow a venemous snake in his practice... :(
