    My favorite is a Russells Viper. I like them because they are very beautiful. They are aggressive but tame down to a degree. Rodents die super fast. I have had Russells for 3 years. I also like Blacktailed rattlers. They are super nice and make great displays with there yellow colors. Gaboons and Rhinos are just awesome as well.

    cobras. They are always moving around. And they have a feeding response to die for.

    My favorite are the eyelash vipers and other arboreals. I like some of the smaller species of Crotalids also. Here are a few shoots of some of my favorites in the collection. Hope everyone can get their venom fix for the week.

    Re: Favorite hot ( To own, not in general)

    Hands down i love Gabbons. i know they don't move around like other snakes but any one who's ever seen one on the move and dancing up on the glass of there cage i think would agree that are one awsome snake.

    Venomous snakes are always the coolest looking snakes.

    Re: Favorite hot ( To own, not in general)

    Gaboons by far! They are fat beautiful & lazy. My idea of the perfect pet.. MASSIVE FREQUENT YAWNS, showing off those huge fangs.. Stuff that sends chills up & down

    Brings a whole new light to the bedtime prayer

    Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray like hell those lids stay shut tonight. If my snakes get out to eat, please dont let me be their tasty treat~

    Mangshan's Vipers and Gaboon Vipers are, IMO arguably two of the most beautiful venomous snakes in the world. And if, one day, I feel I am ready to accept the responsibility of owning hot animals, those two would be definites. I am serious about one day owning hot animals, but I am also smart enough to admit that I am not at this moment ready and I'm not going to rush to say I will be and when I will. But if I ever am, those two would definitely be in my collection.
