Want to learn.

I'm no expert, so you don't have to take my advice too seriously. I believe snakes are some of the most fascinating predators evolution has to offer, but if you keep deadly snakes in you're home than you're either a snake whisperer or you're not giving them the respect they deserve. Not only are they a danger to yourself, but EVERYONE within slithering distance. Let's say you know a guy who knows a girl who knows a shady back alley dealer who has pockets full of south American vipers. You or someone you know gets tagged, and guess what it wasn't a dry bite. So you call 911 and they say "sorry we only keep antivenin for local snakes... Click" then you're in for a rough oh, let's say 30 minutes.

What does this have to do with ANYTHING in the OP's statement of looking for people to help him learn/gain experience in handling hots? Give him some credit...it may not suit your fancy (nor do his life choices affect you in ANYWAY I assume?) but at least he is looking for knowledge and experience first as opposed to going into some "shady back alley" dealer and buying the snakes without the proper knowledge and experience.
