    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

HMMM...wut to get

i am new to this forum. someday i want to get into HOTS and i was wondering wut nonvenomous snake would be good start with the behavior of a HOT.
 
it depends on what "hots" you want to work with...there isn't a universal fit
 
Well i like alot of hots except rattle snakes because to me they arent as interesting. i mostly like vipers.
 
If your looking to learn how to handle them and not get bitten, I learned with a 5' WC Teaxs Rat snake - for 10 years - and still learning. Either he is real fast or I am real slow either way I still don't think I'm ready for hots yet. I do manuver copperheads and timbers when I find them in the field, just to get pics of them. I had an Osage copperhead " wander" into a bag I was useing to get it back on a road in the Ozarks last fall. It realy depends on what you want to work with and who is willing to work with you to learn. There are all kinds of veriables such as housing, cleaning the cage, feeding that you have to concider also. I have no idea how that might help, but there you go..
