What a handsome lad. He looks as though he's quite happy in his new home. :D
Thank you. Pretty chilled for a Western . Had one rattle at me with the S bend pose when I first put him in the viv, other than that . Good boy , not like the other Lunatic Snake , which I have yet to get photo`s of. if the bloody thing will keep still for a few seconds.:)

Guys, area 51 is in Nevada, not new Mexico. White Sands proving ground is in New Mexico. There's this truck stop in Roswell called chisium, they used to sell these b rated horror movies. Cool place. Also, as a side note. Diamond backs are damn good eating

Beautiful Rattler, I am somewhat jealous.
Been wanting to get a DWA for the longest time, congratulations he’s a stunner!
If you need any help regarding obtaining a DWA , just let me know.
One thing I will say is it is pretty easy to get the licence but at the end of the day it is down to the sellers/breeders/traders whether they will sell to you or not. They need to be satisfied that you know what you are doing.
You will need to have had some experience or training dealing with Venomous snakes.
There are quite a few Reptile shops in the UK that offer DWA courses , maybe you have one in you`re area. That would be my advice :)

Why am I getting that area 51 was in New Mexico . I always thought it was, I don`t know why . Maybe I got the idea from some of those UFO Documentary`s from years ago. The original Roswell Incident which I think was in the 40`s . 1947?.
