What is the life cycle of the spitting cobra?

The life cycle of the spitting cobra begins with the female laying eggs, typically in a hidden location like a burrow or under leaf litter. The eggs incubate for about two to three months before hatching into young snakes, which are independent from birth. Spitting cobras grow rapidly, reaching sexual maturity in about two to three years. Throughout their lives, they undergo several molts, shedding their skin as they grow.
