Charles (aka) shugyosha, I in no way recommend anyone with Minimum Experience to Keep any Elapid. With all Due Respect, you should really stick with Less Volatile Species. Just my opinion on this, remember, all Elapid’s can be truly Dangerous. They are very Fast and Agile Snakes, so please consider a Less Dangerous Species...............................Be Safe Ya’ll, Happy Herping : Wally

I would recomand Trimeresurus for some one with minimum experience. There are two articles in the articles section of this site that should teg you started well. Tree viper basics and Teese feeding.
Good luck!
Take care,
Alex S.

Trimeresurus can be difficult to get feeding and have fairly nasty bites. If you live in the USA, good starter hots are copperheads.

I got with captiveherps. Any tree viper can be a pain to feed and handle. They have a tendancy to not get off a hook when you want them. Copperhead is the best by far for beginers.
