These aren't true Rattlesnakes (Crotalus sp.) but I think they're just as nice! :-)

Thanks guys! The Dusky is so small anymore, but here's a picture of the Western Pygmy next to a 2L Coke lid for size reference.

Very nice snakes man. Do you have pairs of each or just singles?

They are both gorgeous.

Thanks westley, unfortunately they're both unsexed singles so I'm gonna have to wait to get them probed before I can pair them up.
