Bothrops asper

[Crotalids]

i dont wanna come off as disrespectful, but what do you do with them ? lol. like are they just for show and to say you have them since they are venomous ? obviously you have experience wit venomous snakes so im just curious.

Not a lot lol. It's just amazing to keep such incredible snakes. I don't have a need to walk round my house holding a snake round my neck etc.

It's not really for show, as only 1 person has ever seen my snakes in the flesh. It's for myself, I adore these animals. And no other snakes come close to them, you can't compare a corn snake to a viper/pit viper or a cobra - in my opinion, it's like comparing a Ford to a Ferrari.

Very nice photos. Bothrops is one genus, which I do not think that I can handle though .

Haha, they are not for everyone that's for sure .

Some of the smaller ones aren't so bad, like venezeulensis. They're much calmer.
