Really like the Atheris squamigera (Variable Bush Viper). How venomous are these snakes. Could they kill a person if they bit them and how long do you thing it would take.

Squams possess a strong hemotoxic venom and they have caused a number of fatalities in Africa. There is no known anti-venom for this genus but with proper medical care, unless you have a allergy, you most likly won't die from a bite.
 
Amazing, you shuld get some Eye-lash Vipers (Yellow Morph), and a Gaboon Viper...that would be sick. They look like babies though, how big are they? Any pics of enclosures?

For venomous snake pricing, check out the Venomous section of the Classifieds on Kingsnake.com. I find it a little scary actually...
