			Does anyone know of a good reference on taylori?
 
 I'm looking for husbandry details and venom toxicity specifics.
 
 Thanks.

			Your best source will probably be Gloyd & Conant's Snakes of the Agkistrodon Complex. Another good one is Campbell & Lamar's The Venomous Reptiles of Latin America.  As far as husbandry goes, they are easy, & will reproduce before the age of two years.  Ambient temps need to be between 70 & 90 F, & they should readily accept dead rodents.  George VanHorn at Reptile World Serpentarium in St. Cloud, Florida has several I produced back in the eighties, if you'd care to see them live.  Beautiful critters.  They don't get as large as the Florida Cottonmouth, & are more brightly marked.  George will be able to tell you about the venom make-up.
