[QUOTE="Enn49, post: 126135, member: 3458"] I'm in the UK so I can't help with credentials or price but in the UK they are not on the DWA list. To my knowledge there have been no deaths from Hognose venom. Some people can have an allergic reaction to the venom that can end in hospitalisation and on rare occasions lasting effects. A friend of mine suffered a reaction, was in hospital for 3 weeks and now has a reduced immune system. This is extremely rare so don't be put off getting one. I kept and bred them for years and most bites I suffered were due to their feeding response, hence me advising tongs, and in all that time I only got 1 wet bite when my hand and arm swelled. [/QUOTE]
