Bitis horns are very soft and flexible. So are the longer horns on the Cerastes genus. Crotalus cerastes horns are smaller and when you press down on them it tends to move the whole eye. They do wiggle a little when poked.
I don't advise doing the touch test at home however. LOL I've worked with anesthetized or otherwise immobilized specimens in the process of giving veterinary care, so I've had a safe opportunity to do a bit of poking.
