hot snakes for sale

Today I went to my local snake shop to pick up some pinkies and while I was looking around I saw that they had some baby albino w stern diamondback rattlesnakes. They looked amazing (too bad they're deadly). Does anyone here have any hot snakes?

No, all my snakes are cold :( :(

Do they even allow venemous herps in Las Vegas?

theres a pair of albino western diamondbacks at my local shop.

i would love to own a hot one day. my parents would FLIP though. for now i have to settle for *just* handling them in the wild.

That's a super cute little rattler, Marshall.

I of course don't have any hots.. possibly maybe someday I'd get a copperhead.. only after a lot more experience with nasty evil constrictors though. lol

Wow! Were they for sale, or just for display?

Just out of curiosity, what shop do you go to? I may have to go and check that out. Of course there's no way i'm buying one.

thanks, you should see the big 4 1/2-5 footers all coiled up and rattling:eek: :rolleye2: :omfg: they're definitely a site to behold!

Yes I'd love to see wild rattlers (at least when I know where they are!)

I'm going to be moving to Texas in a few years, so then I'm sure I will see some!

That's the one. I didn't know they were moving. Where are they moving to?

I used to live with a guy that kept em...:O....Aren't albinos really expensive? ($2000?) or maybe it was the albino eastern diamondback I was thinkin' of.......

I was last there about three months ago and Ken told me they were moving to a bigger space just a bit north of where he was, near Smoke Ranch.

I haven't heard anything. For now they are still in the same place.

Here is a link to an add on kingsnake.com:

I went in today. They said the move has been pushed back. Hopefully they'll be in by January. Oh yeah, the rattlesnakes were pretty cool to look at. I liked their blackhead pythons too. They even entertained my son and let him check out some crested geckos.
