NICE pics, love the rattlesnakes :D That's a pretty big Prarie rattler if you ask me.

What exactly is the snake in the first pic...a retic?

They're all great!

[JD@reptiles]

yep, its a retic.

[Tim and Julie B]

Cool Jordan. Man what a trip! Sounds awsome!

[HetForHuman]

Nice pics Jordan.

Damn that one of you and the rattler, it looks like your free handling it almost.

If it wasnt for the shadows of the snake hooks on your pants i would have to say that you were crazy...LOL

[Clownfishie]

Sounds like you had a great trip! :D Great pics... and congrats on those babies!

[Simon]

great trip~
very nice pics too
lovely finds~

[MAN OF STEEL]

congrats on the catch and new babies!

[Katt]

See what you guys missed??

Send a few of those vines back down here since you got to enjoy our rattlers free of charge!! Hehehe.

I just want to note, Jordan is hooking that rattler with TWO hooks which is better for a hefty hot like a rattler.

[BAZ]

Wicked pics man. Looks like you had an amazing time!

[Tim_Cranwill]

Nice shots! Looks like a blast. I thought that guy was free handling too until I read the rest of the thred. :D

[Lisa]

Wow, looks like fun. I'll have to add it to the list of places to go.

Looks like fun to me........ I am doing some field herping tomorrow......... Taking a trip to my favorite timber rattler densite....... I hope I find one of those blond phases again....... This particular site has some of the most golden yellow timbers I ever saw.......... Hey jordan, looks like you may be a hot keeper in the making........ Just keep practicing those safty precautions you demonstrated in the pic....... Two hooks is a good way to handle large pit vipers....... Can be somewhat tricky with other species though......... I will be taking a trip out to scales zoo next year....... I hope it will be at the time when the rattlesnakes are out......... I am looking forward to meeting Sheila and Ryan and seeing their zoo..........

[JD@reptiles]

its a really nice place there, i had a great time!

[Linds]

Awesome pics! Looks like you had a great trip :) And congrats on the new little babies :)
