What I meant was really more to imply that they have to be handled or special tools need to be utilized in some fashion on a daily basis. You can't simply yank a water dish out or shove your hand in to spot clean. For smaller numbers it's virtually nothing as a time difference... For people who've got a medium or large collection, it can add up to an additional half hour or hour of time just in observing some really basic safety protocols. Of course other species will have their own challenges but as a generalization (thus inherently flawed in specific cases) a given number of hots equalling a certain mass will require a little more time than an identical number and mass of nonvenomous species.

And uh... you may hook ratsnakes... makes some sense given your situation. Most people don't.
