Best Answer

Adult rattlesnakes and baby rattlesnakes have the same venom. However, adult rattlesnakes can control the amount of venom they inject and may not inject any venom at all (a dry bite). Baby rattlesnakes cannot control the amount of venom they inject and are more likely to inject their entire supply.

Baby rattlesnakes may look not all that harmless but they don't know how to control there venom as well as the adults just like scorpions.

Your answer to question is venom from a baby rattlesnake more poisonous than that of a mature rattlesnake absolutely makes no sense what so ever please check your answer again?

The venom of a baby rattlesnake is the same as from an adult snake. However, an adult snake can control the amount of venom they inject and may not inject any venom during a bite (dry bite). They need the venom to obtain food and do not want to waist it to warn off a threat. When baby rattlesnakes bite they have not yet learned to control the flow of venom and will probably inject their entire supply and cause a more severe bite to the victim than an adult snake would.
