Are there any keepers of Rattlesnakes out there?

I'm looking to get my first ones in March.

Hi ,
At the moment, I have three Rattlesnakes.
1 Southern Pacific, Crotalus oreganus helleri.
1 Panamint, Crotalus mitchelli stephensi
1 South-West Speckeled, Crotalus mitchelli pyrrhus.
They are all easy to look after, and all feed well on defrost mice.
All the best,
Brian.

I've dropped right out of venomous at the moment, not got the time and space like I did before Sad

Previously I had;
Mojaves, Albino Westerns, Northern pacific, banded rocks (they were my favorites!).

The one thing I always did with the venomous was to set them up in natural looking vivs, they never seemed to trash the vivs like a kingsnake would Very Happy

I'm looking at Banded rock and Arizona Black as I fell in love with both species on my last Arizona field trip.

Might Also go for some European Vipers
