Hello Community of Fauna Classifieds. I am new to this forum so I am unsure where exactly another thread like this would be (I did not see it under venomous). Needless to say I think the title captures it all. It is my goal in the next 5-10 years to acquire a venomous reptile. In California I know we happen to have some very strict laws about this and I intend to abide by them all.

I also know that the best way to prepare yourself for one of these animals is for someone else to show you the ropes. I have no experience with venomous currently so no bad habits to be unlearned. My only experience with reptiles is with my ball python and carpet python.

If any potential mentors have any questions please feel free to ask me or if anyone knows what else I should be doing to prepare (I am currently studying california law on the matter but it all seems to come down to I need experience with someone who has a permit already)

Thanks for reading this lengthy rant.
