Well anyone can start by visiting the VR.org, fauna and kingsnake classifieds and have a handful or so of breeders and dealers. But not every breeder or dealer uses this way of advertising.
I've tried Google. I've tried different ways to phrase my search and sometimes I will get noting and sometimes I might get one new venomous dealer.
One time I got Glades Herp well another I might get Strictly Reptiles so my question is, how do I phrase it to get the most venomous breeders and dealers in one or 2 searches. When I get a search back showing, Glades, Strictly, Mark Lucas, Diamond, Chameleon Encounters and so on I know I hit pay dirt buy how in the heck do you Google such a list?
I guess I should ask, is there a website that has a link to all the venomous breeders and shops or must someone Google forever? I know breeders are probably harder to find but I wish it was easier to find the websites of venomous snake dealers (shops)
I got a pretty good list just from KS, VR and Fauna but not every shop advertise that way. (Oh, I also went to venomous expos websites and googled the vendors they had on their llist and did ok there as well) I'm trying but if anyone knows a better way...
Thanks.

thanks Chris.
Found a few new ones going there.
I wish it was as easy as googling "Venomous snake breeders". (I guess Google isn't perfect ;-)

Also, feel free to ask for referrals here too. If there's a certain species you are looking for feel free to put it out there. Many of us know lots of excellent breeders and dealers that we would be happy to recommend. It's commonly done in the zoo field and I have received some great leads as a result of asking.

Well right now I am after my Rattlesnake collection.
I'm looking for
Baja
Colorado Sidewinder
Green Mojave
Midget Faded RS
Banded Rocks
Mottled Rocks
I could go on but I'm open to all sorts of RS for the most part. I'm looking for 07 babies with nice color and pattern. I know that limits things but I believe I will find the right snakes for me one day.

I understand many of the RS I want I will probably never come across or have the chance to own but like the Midget Faded I would like to have a Twin Spotted and Ridge nosed. You can always hope...

All of the rattlesnakes you listed have been available, and probably still can be found. The pricei and willardi, that's a different story. I've seen them available, but are very expensive, and there is red tape involved. The others you should have no trouble finding.

Yeah, I have seen some but I guess when I need a boy or a girl it is sometimes up in the air and no guarantee.
I hope Oct and Nov expos in PA and SC prove to be worth the trip.
