I am dying to one day get a venomous snake (no pun intended). They are just such an amazing creature to own. I would make a huge natural display tank for it.

I'm pretty good at handling snakes, and I have some slightly venomous ones already. One of them is a real meanie and tries to bite me all the time. It's been great practice, because I now am excellent with a snake hook and tube.

Slightly venemous? A snake is either venemous or its not.

Im assuming youre talking about a rearfanged like a hognose... I wouldnt consider handling a mean hognose good practice for something like a black mamba lol. Im not trying to sound like a jerk, im just saying its generally reccommended you gain hours of experience with hots with someone who knows what theyre doing before you get one yourself.

for me all things Bitis or Atheris top the list. but you can't go wrong with a nice crotalus either....

I really like my monocle cobras. But my absolute favorite venomous is my rhino vipers

Gaboons are fantastic!

The one I would have to have, is one that doesn't bite lol. (I'll never own one)

Those rhinos are holding there reds really well. Very nice. Do you have a local on them? Ituras? Ugandons?

I'd have to say I like them all, but I really like the head shape that most vipers have, and I like the patterning of rattlesnakes. Najas are definitely a favorite.
