Those Gaboon pics are sweet! I was going to ask you the same question about your collection. Very impressive list! What's your favorite? Do you have to have a special setup for your Cotton Mouth's? (water setup) or any others for that matter, but wondering more on the CM's since they are native here, though I have never seen one in the wild.

Have never bred any venomous snakes yet, but just started to keep my Arizona Black Rattlesnakes together, so we will see what may happen.

My fav. is my Egyptian Cobra. No special enclosure conditions for the Cotton Mouths. Same news paper setup with a hide. Give then a large water bowl, but they don't even soak in it. They eat everything from fish to baby chicks. They are very easy to keep.

Thanks Jerry. You're awesome. On the CM's do they musk much? The water snakes I catch musk like hell.

The Cotton Mouths and the Copperheads musk more than most snakes, but I like that about them, it is what makes them what they are. LOL
