Hmmm, don't know if they do outright purchases. Try posting this question on the venomous forum, more people frequent and respond there than in here.
Glad to see you're doing your research beforehand.

:Thanks. I am aware of the Antivenom Bank, but I haven't contacted them. I'll give them a call and post my findings. I know they can make antivenom available in an emergency, but I am curious if they allow outright purchases. I don't want to take any chances.

::I would think it would come up from the Miami/Dade AV bank. It's possible some zoo's would have certain AV, however, I wouldn't bet a life on it. Check out venomousreptiles.org, they have some contact numbers for the Florida AV bank, they have a list of what's available as well.
::Hope this helps.

:::Does anyone know where Exotic Antivenom can be obtained in the North/Central Florida areas? I am speaking specifically of SAIMR Polyvalent and Haffkine Polyvalent. I don't currently possess exotic hots, but would like to in the future and I am just researching my options.
