Snakes birth is divided into three;

1) Oviparous - lay eggs outside.

2) Viviparous - birth them live, no egg at any stage in the development.

3) Ovoviviparous- combination of the two above. Eggs inside, hatch inside, birth them live.

Cobras are oviparous.

From the skin pattern of the young ones, it is a puff adder. Definitely not a cobra and not a gaboon viper. I am always surprised people can’t pick out a gaboon viper. Its skin is too unique to be missed by even a rookie.

That's not COBRA..
COBRAS lay Eggs.
They are oviparous in nature.
That's a VIPER, either Gaboon or Rattlesnake...
They are Ovoviviparous

Kudos to you.
People are not studying again at all.
We used to have intelligent people before now, where people engaged in healthy academic competitions.
The country is truly nose diving.

You are right. Looking at it again, the pattern would easily pass for a rattlesnake.
