Re: Hey everyone!
Thanks guys!, i keep everything from small Colubrids and large constrictors to hot's. Currently for front fanged hot's i have 1.0 Crotalus mitchelli pyrrhus, 1.1 Agkistrodon contortrix contortrix, 1.3 Cryptelytrops albolabris and soon to be getting some Cerastes vipera. Also some of my opisthoglyphous snakes i keep are Hydrodynastes gigas and Ahaetulla nasuta. I also have a pair of Ambon island reticulated pythons, a Hydrosaurus weberi (sail finned dragon) and of course some bearded dragons just to name a few. I'll definitely post some pic's for you guys soon, just gotta get a decent camera first.

Re: Hey everyone!
Hydrodynastes gigas are awesome, I hope to own one soon.
Ambon retics look awesome for locales! where did you get them if you don't mind my asking.
Where in Canada are you? Not many provinces allow some of the above listed animals :P
The Cerastes vipera and other venomous species in particular.
I believe Quebec is the only province where its legal to own hots, and not everywhere in Quebec.

Crotalus mitchelli pyrrhus = Southwestern speckled rattlesnake (my fav rattler)
Agkistrodon contortrix contortrix = Copperhead
Cryptelytrops albolabris = White-lipped Pit Viper
Cerastes vipera = Sahara sand viper
Hydrodynastes gigas = False Water Cobra
Ahaetulla nasuta = Green Vine Snake (love these things)
Ambon retic = Locale of Reticulated Python.

I'm actually expecting some hatchling falsies in a month and a half so maybe we can work something out? and i don't usually like giving out my info on the computer but for you i'll make an exception, Ontario and Quebec are the only province's that I'm aware of, as i live in Ontario in a city with currently no animal by laws. I got the retic's as W.C. imports from a reptile store i work at, i was also told that they were the last legal imports from Ambon island. I'll also try and take some pic's for you guys tonight with my cell.
