What would the difference be in captivity of say these three species?

blacktail rattlesnake
Crotalus_molossus

Western Pygmy Rattlesnake
Sistrurus m. streckeri

Mottled Rock Rattlesnake
Crotalus l. lepidus

Hardy? Appetite? Requirements? Attitude?

I'm starting to really like the idea of one of these three... both from my understanding stay under 4 foot which is fine by me, all have resonably accesable AV (not around me unfortunately tho since neither is native.. but neither was my cerastes so I shouldnt be overly concerned

Thanx
