Picked up this little girl today at the reptile show in Hamburg, PA. She's a Dusky Pygmy Rattlesnake. She's a yearling about 12" long at best. Been eyeing one of these for quite some time and pulled the trigger finally.

I probably crossed your path at the show today. Love checking out all the venomous snakes, but I'm from Maryland.

Awesome pick up; beautiful snake.

Nice! I wish I was crazy enough for venomous.

I missed out on going to Hamburg today and Zerkle was there so it was super disappointing I couldn't go. It's weird to think I've probably crossed paths with quite a few of you before at Hamburg!

Yeah, I'm sure I've crossed paths with quite a few members without knowing it. I get in there early before the doors open so I get my pics and supplies without the rush of the crowds. Been going to this event for a long time and I'm fortunate enough to get hooked up with a vendor pass. I was there for a few hours and left just before noon.

That's great. Man that place gets packed. I was there from 9 to 11. Took 15 minutes just to get in. What other hots do you keep?

The Hamburg show is definitely one to experience. There's a lot going on in not that large of a venue. Hundreds of people attend it. There are times when the line to get in is 200+ people. It's worth the wait and pushing through the crowds. You'll see some pretty cool stuff there.

She ate a frozen fuzzy mouse today without any hesitation. I thought it was going to be a gamble with her being a wc snake and only having been feed live in captivity prior to today. She's a funny little thing with lots of attitude.
