When working with hots you should be able to have enough confidence not to have to worry about which one would kill you quicker or just make you sick. As long as you train right and take all the safety percautions you shouldnt get bitten. Iknow bites happen but usually its because keepers start lacking. I know ive done it. But thats why I would never keep as many hots and I do nonvenomous becuase I know I would get slack and accidents would happen. I only keep copperheads at the moment but I would love to add some rhinos, gaboons, and some cobras. But Not until I get a lot more experience
