My favourite species in this genus, Trimeresurus trigonocephalus. Does anyone keep any arboreal vipers?
 
I dig the vipers as well but no way in hell I will keep them!! LOL!!!
 
i love their color... =O how much they normally cost? cost more than a regular green tree python? :D

Arent viper poisonous? =o

venoumous< poisin's are manmade

i'm all for keeping big snakes, but i have never had the balls to keep venomous ones.
 
they are venemous. I believe this species isn't too toxic, but no one go thinking they can put their hand in their mouth and blame me! Depends on the GTP i guess. I imagine they are more expensive though.
 
It looks nice, but i doubt a poisonous snake can get thru the custom airport here.. They are banned! =o

I would consider, if i have the money and if it doesnt kill me with a bite.

looks way better than a python/boa head.. small and cute ^^

i seen youtube (giant centepede, if people can tame those without biting), im sure this can be tame too.. Itd be cool if its like those tamed GTP ^^;;

I've noticed there aren't too many venemous keepers on here. Poisons aren't exclusively man made.

well in general, i find the flatend head shape and big venom sacks, somewhat threatening, but it is no question the the most amazing snakes i have seen in terms of looks are venomous ones, like gaboons and such
 
if you haven't already you should watch some of Al's videos on youtube, under the name viperkeeper. Theres almost one hundred, they'll change your mind.
