AHHH!!!!!!

YOU HAVE A GABOON!

That is so awesome. I might actually keep one of those if it wasnt venomous and didnt have two inch fangs. p)

Man, you have some pretty snakes there.

Hehe, its not my snakes, they belong to friends of mine (I keep rattlers only). The gabon are nice, I will try get a few shots of another friends gabon - they are mindblowing! The female are reddish in color. If/when he get offspring from the pair I probably get one.
Heres another friends gaboon (B.g.gabonica):

Hey Crotalus,
I think the Gaboon is one of the most beautiful snakes in the world.Like Scorpio said,I too would keep one but for them being venomous. I stick to constrictors. Nice quality pics too.

I'll have to go with what everyone else said. Gaboons are awesome. Probably one of my favorite snakes out there.

Nice pictures and beautiful snakes. Schlegelii are one of my all time favorites even though they don't have a rattle. LOL. Have you ever seen a Rhino viper strike at a prey item? Truly amazing.

Hi!

The schlegeli are nice but somewhat boring so to speak. I prefer rattlers ;-)
Its nice how they use their large fangs as forks to push the prey down...rhinos that is
