:Don't you need a special permit since they are poisonous.I would like to know


You need to check your local and state laws. Some people can have them but certian states won't allow it. Here in Texas I guess we are lucky on that. Depending on where you are you very well might have to have some type of permit. I can tell you they are great animals and will bring you alot of enjoyment. If you can have them where you are at. I would definitely reccomend them. However, be sure you buy from a reputable person and get paperwork for the Gila. There are some folks out there selling wild caught animals. You don't want to get caught up in that.
Hope I helped a little!
Thanks,
Gilbert Thompson
