Re: New Rattler and some new pics
Gorgeous snakes! I LOVE the closeups of their faces... Although it does feel like they are staring into my mortal soul. Awesomeness at it's finest!

Re: New Rattler and some new pics
The NP and Falsie are sweet looking. The Canebrake looks comical and evil all at once.

Re: New Rattler and some new pics
If they are venomous how do you take them out to clean cages without getting bit?

Re: New Rattler and some new pics
You've got good taste in Crotalus, I like C. rubers quite a bit, quite a gem. Do you know what locale?
A nice Blacktailed or a Banded Rock next?

Proper tools and a lot of courage with extreme caution.

False Water Cobra venom is considered to very potent and is similar to Crotalidae. However, they are not capable of producing a large yield of venom. The small amount of venom being produced, combined with poorly evolved fangs and a poor delivery system make this snake's bite less than life threatening. Envenomation reports suggest that most bites result in localized swelling, pain and itching. Always be aware of the possibility of an allergic reaction or anaphylactic shock.

I use mostly a plastic shield and long hemostats, snake hook or a cover box. Other methods are tongs, gloves or hide boxes that close.

Sorry I don't know the local. What is next is still a mystery to me, but I love Crotalus's.
