Should you keep DANGEROUS SNAKES?? WHY???

[@chrisw9344]

I like that you keep venomous because now I can live vicariously through you.

[@BuyestFan]

I appreciate my life too much to take a chance with venomous snakes.

[@LadytisExotics]

Am I the only one who saw those humongous fangs at the 1 minute mark when she yawned. Wowzers!

[@OlympusReptiles]

Should see em as adults, up to 2 inches!!!

[@coldbloodedmonstars]

Yea they are HUGE!

[@malcolmc.3118]

Let's not forget antivenom consideration, in case one gets bit. I heard vials of them can be expensive, especially for exotic species.

[@OlympusReptiles]

Actually, exotic is much cheaper. It is knowing where some is located. Crofab (for all american pit vipers) is extremely expensive.

[@malcolmc.3118]

@@OlympusReptiles Oh okay. That's the opposite of what I thought. Thanks.

[@charlesdoyle3630]

@@malcolmc.3118 Can range from 1500 a vial to 6 k a vial normally. Tho have been cases where was alot more

As soon as my son moves out on his own in a few years then shits gonna get venomous around the house

[@jasonirelan4487]

The Barnaby Jones rerun that was on today was about rattlesnakes so I decided to keep it in the system after I watched it.

Gaboon vipers are so gorgeous!

[@thunderrain789]

Gorgeous gaboon, gotta love it!

I love that you said "unless you run a genie lamp" rub a jeannie bottle.... hahalol

[@trapier1381]

keeping one.. nope not w/ my luck but i do love the way some have a streamlined head that's just sick... I'd rather admire from a safe distance i guess you could say.

[@wacsavagetaco3292]

Great video guys

[@curtatronmaximums5327]

good job👍

[@Wulfgeist]

It's true the camera adds pounds. She didn't seem that thick when I put her in the bath recently.

[@OlympusReptiles]

She got a poop coming

[@harry-po6jz]

great content love venomous but not at the point to keep them yet

[@jimiwilliams7176]

Curt is like me it's not a pet if you can't play with it and is kids and mine sound the same

[@karyannfontaine8757]

I love and respect the amazing Gaboon Viper. If one is properly trained in venomous skills, I think keeping them is enjoyable. Viper Keeper has a great channel. I keep Blood Pythons, Boas, Sumatran Pythons, Ball Pythons two, of which are almost 16 years old. This was an interesting discussion.

[@nolancampbell4451]

I love viperkeepers collection, but he keeps his animals in disgusting conditions and constantly makes excuses as to why it's okay to have algae in the water bowls and damn near more poop than substrate in their enclosures hes a very lazy keeper

[@jakepaintin7215]

I would like to learn how to handle venomous snakes and eventually be able to keep a viper.

[@janicemorelock5791]

I love the hots, and this is one of my favorites. But I could never have one, not in my wheelhouse. But another question if I may, what size tubs are your adult ball pythons in? And where can I find them? Thank you for any help....

[@OlympusReptiles]

We use FB70 from freedom breeder

[@reedwetzel1324]

Nice video guys. While I love the look at venomous snakes. I just do not trust myself with them and then point of having kids, I just would be nervous about my young girls going to my snake room somehow getting bit even though everything is locked up

[@jasonirelan4487]

My landlord would say no and I don't feel like arguing.

[@tacticalimpactgat7714]

Are the business series vids no longer up on YT?

[@OlympusReptiles]

They should be

[@Allinguts]

I would love to learn how to work with venomous snakes

[@ToddAutry]

I love the venomous species but also I don’t like the attitude of “you’re not a real keeper unless” type attitude. If you love the animal and are passionate about working with the species and you are experienced I say go for it. But you better know what you are doing. Zero room for mistakes with hots.

[@jim1550]

When your family tells you something like you are foolish/stupid, you are either on the right track or you have veered so far off course that you won't see it in the moment. Families try to see the pragmatism is decisions for the safety. If you have the passion and you see the station ahead, just keep going. But like Matt said, if you have a developing family then it's a whole other game. Not gonna throw stupid "Yeehaw, you do you!" platitudes. You know what's going to work. If you don't, Matt and people like him are the ones to ask when targeting your hobby/passion. They been through the rough stuff. Learn from them. Mistakes cost money you don't want to spend. And if you have whimsical hedge fund yacht money to spend, then spend it in the hobby because lord knows the rest of us are on the other dirtier busted up ship that could sink any day. Don't let your dreams be dreams! Diatribe over.

[@Wobblyrage]

I must have missed it, but Lilith 2.0? What happened to the first Lilith? Also, I agree with Kurt. It’s not for me. Good that you have the skills that you can keep a venomous snake. But they really aren’t for everyone.

[@OlympusReptiles]

They are not for everyone. Unfortunately, she passed away. I think it was do to an infection from moisture. They hardly moved, and she kept the moisture locked in underneath her. Appeared to get an infection at the cloaca. Hard lesson to learn.

[@Wobblyrage]

@@OlympusReptiles that’s sad. May she Rest In Peace. ☹️

Hey guys check out venom centraL also check out Tyler Nolan also check out will nace also check out chandlers wild life all on youtube

[@jimiwilliams7176]

I would love to have a gaboon but i got to be hands on and thats not happening with one of them as you know but i rescued pit bulls from fighting rings and retrained them and put them back in a house as someones pet with 100% success so i get to big for my own boots iam the guy that sorts everyones pet problem not a good combo with a gaboon so i just watch yours and its not just me like that and things like that are no good for the hobby or life so i love my royals and play with them in safety and all of mine are puppies

[@ericsuperskinkyfowler571]

For the love of the universe, figure out the damn beeping In Your videos so I can watch them Without going nuts. Fix your Camera settings or whatever it is you need to do

[@OlympusReptiles]

The beeping on occasion is from a thermostat. The probe occasionally loses signal, giving a single beep.

[@ericsuperskinkyfowler571]

@@OlympusReptiles ahhhhhh.. I See...

[@rp573]

It beeped twice who gives a shit
