Hey everyone,
My name is R. Maxwell Howard. I am 30yrs old. I was born and raised in Central Florida. I have recently relocated to the Pensacola area (Milton,Fl). I have been an avid herp keeper and enthusiast for 20 years. I've kept and bred most U.S. native king and rat snakes, as well as a few others (racers, coachwhips, garters). Over the years I have developed a keen interest in our native venomous snakes, especially rattlesnakes. I would love to get involved and learn more. I need a teacher! If anybody is reasonably close, and is willing to pass on their knowledge and experience, as well as time to help me log in the hours to acquire a state of Florida venomous permit, I would remain forever grateful.
I am currently working my way into the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, but the selection and training process can take more than a year. I haven't found a job yet so I have some spare time.

Any advice, comments, contacts, ect., will be helpful and very much appreciated. Sorry for the long post and thanks for taking the time to read it.

MAX
