Re: Uncommon/Underrated Snakes?
Garter snakes, bullsnakes and the African house snakes.
Junk snakes = the snakes that live out behind my barn.
Exotic and desirable snakes = the snakes that live out behind someone's barn a thousand miles away.
:D

Yeah, they're very similar as far as docile temperaments and husbandry, they just get a bit bigger than balls without getting to the size of burms and retics.

Saw that today. Was way too close to making a bad decision.

No, what was shown was a Gabino. This is a hybrid of the Gaboon viper and Rhinoceros Viper. And yes, potent, but not one of the most lethal.

I stand corrected. Apologies.
And I was under the belief that drop for drop their venom is among the most lethal. If I'm wrong I apologize. I try not to share info unless I'm confident I'm right. There's already enough false info on the internet, I don't need to be adding to it. Hahhahaa.

That would be cool to see.
I've always like the look of a Mandarin Rat. Never seen one first hand but the videos et al, the yellow and black is just radiant. And I'm not even a Steelers fan.

Re: Uncommon/Underrated Snakes?
While I haven't kept any (yet ;)), Savu pythons seem like an underrated snake. All the fun and beauty of Liasis pythons in a small, apartment-friendly package. :gj:
