She cost $350. I can buy a puff adder for $60, and it's one of the last snakes you want to get bit by{kills more people in Africa every year then any other snake}.The venomous snakes are cheap, but what costs is good cage set ups for them. Plus, it's really hard to buy them as most sellers are very particular who they sell to. They are trying to ban them in alot of states. Sometimes a ninny head will get his hands on one and then get bit and put in the hospital or killed, so it gets the government all crazy.

It's a crazy hobby, but very fun and it's always interesting matching wits every day with an animal that can kill you. Here's a site to a guy who is well known in the herp community. He is still in the hospital as he got tagged by an eastern diamondback rattlesnake a few weeks ago. He almost died, but he is getting out this weekend from what I hear. He has been bitten by some of the worst snakes in the world, like 50 times, but keeps doing it.
