    I took the COOLEST pictures of our snake!!!

    OK I am super duper excited about these pictures. I don't think I have ever taken such good photos in my life. I am so excited about these!

    I took these last night. He's a little fat right now as he just ate a couple of days ago. He's a Western Diamondback Rattler, and his name is Agave.

    I am leaving the photos big so you can see the detail.





    I'll try posting more pics of him later on today. I have a few of his tank etc.

    Oh yes, that is his favorite place to sleep too, besides his little den.

    Those are great! What a beautiful snake. However, it would be too close for comfort for me, if I was really that up close!

    WW! He is gorgeous! Where'd you get a Rattler? I didn't know people could keep them as pets.

    Here in Oregon you can have many different kinds of venemous snakes. For some reason people seem to choose the cobras but I prefer the rattlers. They are just so much friendlier/cuter. You need a special permit for the Western Diamondbacks. Eastern Diamondbacks are perfectly legal with no permits though. We're working on adding an Eastern to our home too. Hopefully soon! Though I think I am more partial to the Westerns.

    Yes, he is still venomous. They sell some with their glands removed though, but I find that cruel.

    What happens if he bites you? I don't know much about snakes.....

    Great pictures! It looks like they were taken outside because of the foilage! I'd love to see more!

    Educate me... I'm snake-dumb! lol

    Are those holes nostrils?
    Are "venom-free" snakes more (price-wise) than venomous snakes?
    Can you take him and donate venom so they can make anti-venom?

    GREAT pics!
