Is there any prospect of breeding venomous snakes?

Promising. Don't be afraid that there will be no sales. The customers we sell to mainly include hotels, snake shops, and other places where snakes are eaten. All snakes have prospects, but venomous snakes have the most economic benefits.

The government will implement effective macro-control on import and export trade. The cost of distribution channels will be greatly reduced, and the selling rights of breeding farms (households) will be consolidated. At the same time, my country’s rich natural snake resources are not very likely to be affected by foreign products; therefore, existing domestic snake farms (households) should seize the opportunity, and the huge foreign consumer market will bring great benefits to this industry. With the advent of a larger market, it is a foregone conclusion that snakes will become popular.
