    I wish they were legal here to keep. A Gila Monster and a Gaboon Viper would be the only hots I would keep, if I had the space for either. I wouldn't even mind having a Beaded Lizard. Very nice lizard you have!

    owls by far are my favorite for sure. Last year i rehabbed 2 other barn owls and a great horned owl. The GHO was on of the most amazing animals i have ever been around, its power was unbelievable. If you are serous about falconry i highly recommend it but you need a lot of time to spend with your bird

    Yeah I love me my hots, but sadly with the recent birth of my daughter I had to sell most of them cause the fiancee didn't want them in the house with our daughter... I do plan on getting some again when she is a little older and can appreciate the danger and beauty.

    I've kept
    0.1 Rhino Viper
    1.1. Prairie Rattlers
    1.1 Puff Adder
    1.0 Mojave Rattler
    1.0 Dessert Horned Viper
    1.0 Southern x banded copperhead

    Good luck man that's a beautiful Gila... I've ALWAYS wanted one just no space for one haha
