ty, I have been looking at the reticulated ones, they will be difficult, but I like those.

If you want to do more venemous at some point, these are awesome:

Atheris hispida / Hairy Bush Viper (if you want a challenge - those scales!)


Gaboon Viper




They wouldn't let anyone handle snakes at the reptile expo in Toronto. Due to "insurance purposes" or something. I was SO disappointed after hearing everyone on here talk about handling snakes at expos...

Realy like the gaboon viper, I prefer the browns and ouranges because I canfind stain to match there colors.

Whaa? All the vendors at the Downsview one last year were like "we're not allowed to let people handle snakes because of liability". Only thing I held was a little tiny tortoise and of course the corn snake I bought.

How do you convince them to let you handle? Pretend you're going to buy it? :P

Here's a couple more ideas:

Sharp Nosed Viper



Tiger Blood Python

No, last year at the March expo in Downsview. All the vendors were saying that they couldn't let anyone handle the animals. Weird.
