They are nice, not my favorite species to work with though, especially when adult, the strike speed on them is crazy lol.

Not really pets, some are animals we have got in for people, some are our own stuff that we had on display and will have back on display again when our new display place is open.
As for why, i find some of the best looking snakes are venomous, and i have plenty of non venomous species to handle and get out, so as a display animal they look good.

Very true, i have many species that are just display animals, i do like to get the retics and burms out, as they are nice to handle, and the handling keeps them tolerant of handling and makes working around them easier, it's also good excersize for both me and the snakes lol.

Re: some of the venomous
beautiful animals! That's a very interesting gray on the western diamondback you have; usually they are more of a sandy brown color. I love the gray on yours!!

Thank you, the venomous stuff and a few other bits are some of the animals from work, the rest is animals from my own collection, some are animals that i have bred and then sold on though.
I do love photographing them, photography is a hobby of mine and i tend to take way too many pictures, as you could tell lol.
