Are there any keepers of Rattlesnakes out there?
I'm looking to get my first ones in March. _________________ Live for today as your dead for a long long time

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. _________________ All venoms are poisons but not all poisons are venoms |

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

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 _________________ Live for today as your dead for a long long time

I don't doubt they will be amazing snakes, and I look forward to the photos
May I suggest Vipera dinniki as one of your vipers?
