i thinking of buying my first viper after years of experience with corns,kings,phytons,milks and mangroves but never a deadly snake.i wonder which of the following species is the best for the beginer venomous keeper
-pope pit viper
-wagler temple pit viper (green/yellow)
-hagen's pit viper

they are all i think wildcought because they are a local species,i'm in malaysia and they are also cheap,us$35.are WC viper adaptable to captive condition,they are all still small,1'-1 1/2' feet.

so which do you think is the best/beutifull viper for the beginner venomous keeper?

thanks for any info

If I only had those 3 to choose from which really isn't that bad, I would go with waglers they can be pretty calm besides a few stray crazy ones.

Id get a waglers or a copperhead.
