they are really cute as babies.. terrifying as adults! LOL

Very cute! I think I will stick to with my BP's :D

aww such awsome little worms. Gab's are my favorite snake hands down. i've had a lot of animals come and go through my collection over the years but the only time losing one brought me to tears was my one of my Gabbys. they look like bitis gabonica rhinoceros from the colour but it's so hard to tell as babies. do you know if they were bitis g.r or bitis g.g?

awww its head is too big for its body, rofl! :rofl:

awww so cute! This has to be one of my favourite hots. Very pretty baby!

Sweet. I like the second pic. Reminds me of my dog showing me his bone. I could just picture the snake wagging its tail!:D

I want to get into hots but not until have have a couple years of mentoring. I don't want to risk my life over stupidity or ignorance on my behalf.

Any other hots? Post pics!

I don't keep Hots, this gabby was at a facility I was working at a couple months ago. There were Black Mamba's, Monocled Cobra's, Wagler Viper, Cottonmouths, Timber Rattler's, Eastern and Western DB Rattler's, Speckled Rattler's, and that's about it for Hots I worked with over there. I didn't have much of a chance for photo's with the others, but I know I have a few more on my phone i'll post when I can.

The funny thing is each and every gaboon grabbed the mouse and stood up like that. It was a really neat sight, I personally think it's so the prey can't struggle on the ground in turn jerking the snake around while it's envenomating the prey.

It's so adorable! I think hots are fascinating and beautiful creatures. Part of me would love to work with them some day, but the other part is terrified! lol. I'm Pre-Vet and want to specialize in reptiles, so I imagine I'll get to eventually. Especially if I end up at one of the animal based theme parks. :P
