- In this video I am making a setup for my Copperhead Pit Vipers. While doing so I figured this would be a good time to go over some care for this species as well. So tell me what you think of the video down in the comments and tell me if I should add anything to the next video!

Ty best video yet also me and my dad is getting a copperhead so this helped alot
They are hands down the best one to start with.
Great presentation Josue. Are these the coppers you have to separate to feed?
Yes! That’s them! Thanks for taking the time to watch this video as well!
How much these sell for? I catch a few every week in my ranch lmao
Probably like $100 a piece!
0:39 I’m not trying to sound rude at all, but did you mean Agkistrodon contortrix? Amazing video btw!
Yea I did that on purpose to see who would catch it!
@@JosuesExotics ah, I gotcha.
nice one man
I appreciate it! Thanks for taking the time to watch my videos!
Love the video bud
Glad you enjoyed!
Great care video. I’m considering one of these, and/or a Florida Pigmy rattlesnake. Both won’t likely kill you, but in my opinion are both beautiful snakes. I’d LOVE to have a Gaboon Viper, but id rather not die, or loss a limb at the very least, if I should happen to make a mistake. The Gaboon is probably the most beautiful snake I’ll never own!!! 😂😂
Quick tip. I spray paint my screen tops with high temperature grill paint, or header paint when I’m using them with a heat lamp. I’ve had them rust, and disintegrate from the heat, so the heat paint helps them last longer.
Next video post lets see them eat lmao
Make sure to check it out!
Awesome video bro. Have you thought about the P&E Show?
Not yet
Very nice. I got 2 broad bands and I love them !! Great vid
If I may make a suggestion. The cage for venomous, especially a pair is a bit too busy and can increase chances of envenomation. In keeping professionally, it's generally a better option for the keeper to house them singularly, as to be able to give 100 percent of attention to the snake in front of you and not split your concentration on more than one snake. Great video otherwise. Stay safe.
Well this was a breeding pair of snakes. That's the main reason for keeping them together. But I will say otherwise I would be keeping them separate as well!
@JosuesExotics I got ya brother I was more so talking about the wood, but I know you know what you're doing. I thought my girl was gravid at first too, but was mistaken. Darnit. We'll get her next time. Love your species man. Are they contortrix?
Humidity?
60 to 70 should be fine!
Chloorhexidine i use for cleening mouth and teeth. My dentist and hygiënist advise me! Every bacterie goodbeyy
It’s some pretty good stuff!
Where did yu get them from
From an online vendor!
Nice 🐍🤘
Thanks 🦾
While NO, I repeat NO venomous snake is a good pet, probably the least bad is the copperhead(in the US...in europe they have vipera berus which is reported to have pretty weak venom yet still a front fanged snake)).
Copperheads have weaker venom than any other front fanged snake in North America(note I didn't say weak venom), and the venom itself, while nothing to mess around with, is very rarely fatal, with some bites not even requiring anti venin, just methods to treat the symptoms.
They are also very widespread, so if anti venin is needed, good chance your hospital will have it(if you live in the midwest, south, or east). They are hardy, very pretty, and stay a very managable size.
I absolutely agree with you on this post. You should definitely check out some of my other videos I’ve made on them as well. I talk about alot of what you mentioned above!
