Whats up.
Love the name and the movie, "CanadianBacon". What is the second snake? Looked like a rattler till I saw the tail. I'm sorry to hear that you lost him.

Hi Tyler,

Welcome! Love your Vipers / Adders. I have a pair of East African Gaboons as well. Love them to bits. How big / old are yours?? I had a pair of Baby Rhino Vipers but lost one due to RI, and the remaining one in a fire. I miss them and would love to get some again.

Your Boa look awesome as well.

Who designed your tattoos for you?

This was my Bitis rhinocerus

She died earlier this year from a fire which broke out in my kitchen. (Smoke inhalation)

And then last but not least my Rhino viper, also died in same fire : (

Hey, welcome Tyler!  I really like your Bitis's.  Sweet looking little things.  Still young?  they seem sorta smallish still.  I always wanted one when I dealt with hots, just never had that much luck obtaining one, and now i don't do hots at all unless rescueing.

Again.........Welcome.

Ciao,
Rick
