It takes a few days for the transformation to be complete, depending on how much venom is in the bloodstream, how close the venom is to the heart.

Snakes are just very instinctive to me. I've been playing with snakes since before I could walk. It doesn't matter where or what it is, from the biggest to the most venomous. ↗
