Some pictures of my venomous collection.

These are what i keep currently, with some Calloselasma rhodostoma due in March. And a few other rattlers later in the year, as they're the best snakes in the world :)

This is a great shot, love the lighting. You have some beautiful snakes :)

[MDT]

wow, even for a baby, that is one long fang on the gaboon. very pretty snakes.

[SnakeyJay]

Absolutely stunning mate... The photos and the snakes lol. I don't know how you take a clear shot that near to a hot, I'd be shaking like mad if my face was that close.

Thank you. Can't take the credit for that picture I'm afraid, my friend took it lol.

Thanks. Yeah, i would say they are about 0.8 of an inch at the moment.

Thanks, it's not as close as you think lol.

[themeyers]

Indeed it is mate, thanks. Yeah i love my two Gaboons they're awesome snakes, mine are still little though just over a foot. Ah yeah salvini's are awesome, there are a few people in Europe with them.

Ha, i know she was so small when i first got her, around 20cm. She's now about 35, still adorable though.

Thanks mate!

[alessia55]

Wow you've got a stunning collection!!

[jausi]

Amazing collection of hots!!!!! love to do that sometime far in the future once my kids are done with college ... lol (at least Id like to keep a eyelash viper or a gaboon viper too)

[Will0W783]

Those are some gorgeous fang faces! I love all the rattlers and the baby Naja is precious.

[Crotalid]

Wow you've got a stunning collection!!

Thanks, only have 7 at the moment though :( not enough!! lol.

Thanks, haha everyone that wants to get into hots always wants either an Eyelash viper or a Gaboon 99% of the time i swear. :)

Those are some gorgeous fang faces! I love all the rattlers and the baby Naja is precious.

Thanks! She is a little cutie, she is very shy though! Wouldn't think she's a cobra at all lol, but she is getting a little more confident as she gets bigger.

[Theweinz]

Wow! What a superb collection! Beautiful and exciting animals. I would love to own a viper, but I just don't know if I have the guts! Would really change the collection! No room for error. Well beyond the ornery python for sure.

Lol, of course. Not to sound like i am negating the snake is venomous, but if you were to get something like Bitis caudalis, you'd have to be an idiot to be bitten by something so small.

My friends adults are around 30cm. Small, stunning vipers.

I wouldn't reccomend a gabby as a starter hot if you were considering dabbling into the hot side of herps. They have a crazy strike radius and have a few needs that do require regular swims which means more interaction. I love the bitis....ive seen a few parviocula floating around as of late...what stunners

[Roadtrash]

Great looking animals and great pictures too. The hots always seem to have more character than other snakes. Just my opinion.

Generally i wouldn't disagree, but the Gaboons were my first snake..ever. It all depends on what experience you can get with whatever venomous snake you want to own before hand.

But for anyone living in America the best thing to start with over there is one of your native hots (Crotalus or Sistrurus because they're the best :)) species seeing as if an accident were to happen you'll have antivenom available readily.

A friend of mine has 3 Crotalus willardi merdionalis, and his mate has 3 parviocula.

Great looking animals and great pictures too. The hots always seem to have more character than other snakes. Just my opinion.

Thanks. Mmm, I'm not sure, but i think it's because of their head shape or having a hood that makes them look 'smarter' if you know what i mean.

You are so lucky to have such a beautiful and amazing collection of hots!
