Hi:
They are seldom available because Australia does not allow them to be exported. Any that might be available are from time to time are from PNG.
Another thought that crossed my mind is most people are smart enough to know how dangerous they are to care for and leave them to very experienced keepers with Antivenom stocks. With 11 bites to your name, maybe you should keep something less lethal.
One final suggestion, someone should buy you a Dictionary for the holidays.

missauga rattler also known as the eastern diamond back or red. I think you mean to say Massasauga. Also I did not know that they were also known as EDBs or reds. They are not even in the same family. They are Sistrurus catenatus, not Crotalus adamantues or Crotalus rubber.

Both are in the Family Viperdae, Subfamily Crotalinae the major distinction is Genus where they are split into Crotalus & Sisturus.
