Upcoming venomous

I was browsing the classifieds on one of the venomous groups I'm in and I saw these rattlesnakes and I instantly fell in love. This was hard to say being I'm not a rattlesnake person, but man I ended up getting them. They come in Wednesday so I can't wait.

Here are some photos, first two are the babies, last is one of the parents.:

Those are beautiful and would definitely be nice additions.

Wow you really did it. Crazy man.

WOW. What kind of rattlesnakes are those?

Flipping beautiful animals. I think the rattling would drive me insane though.

I hear you. These are just so pretty, though. Might have to take a strike for the team!

Yep, I really did it, definitely more than I ever thought I would pay. They're gorgeous, by far one of the prettiest snakes I've seen.

They're Crotalus tortugensis from a tiny island in the golf of California, Mexico. I'll be the only person in the US with them aside from the guy who bred them.

I'm hoping they don't rattle too much other than if I'm right there by the cage.
