New gaboons.

Gaboons are the only hot I'd ever consider keeping, but we're not allowed hots here.

Super gorgeous!!

Good choice, better than gabonica haha.

Huh, better? Not a chance lol. Still absolutly amazing? Absolutly.
It's hard to capture there true colours with an iPhone, especially since it has no zoom feature lol. I'm going to get a buddy to come by with a good camera and see if I can get some decent pictures. The female is so pink! Can't wait to see what she looks like as an adult. And hopefully not an 8' adult lol.

Haha, I'm a rhinoceros man as you know.

Are these CB 12?

Mate, I'm sure my female is going to be massive. I only feed her once every 3 weeks, and she's double the size of her siblings that my friends have lol.

Yep cb 12's. one owner and he's takin amazing care of them. Could tell he was sad to let them go. But with things he's got going on in his life just couldn't keep them. Made me promise if I ever breed them that I call him first though lol. They've been feed small meals weekly and are still siting under 12". I'm going to keep them on that schedule for awhile. Then maybe move them up to small rats every couple of weeks. Growing Bitis slow as I'm sure you know is one of the important keys to success with them.

Wow, amazing snakes!

Indeed, I fed mine every 10 days for the first six months. Now I'm feeding them every 14-21 days. But i will and have left them 4-5 weeks between feeds, i like to keep my snakes keen and not in a particular routine. Female is now on rat pups, male fuzzy mice.

She's been fed less than yours, and she's 23". She's going to be at least 6 ft I think.

i absolutely love the patterns on these things. i don't think i'll ever own a hot, but if i did, it would definitely be a gaboon.

[Brad91]

Yup. You are correct! You can get permits and such to be able to keep them. Only certain places allow that tho.

Thought so. Those are gorgeous snakes and I'd love to keep one, or maybe even a rattler, but how would I get a permit for one? And just HOW venomous are they? Do you keep anti-venom in the house just in case? I'd do tons of research on a species before I got one of course. Especially a hot. Congrats on the gorgeous new addition though. I'm jealous. Lol.

those are some seriously "killer" looking snakes!
