I put all of my gaboons on a more natural substate..... Topsoil, mulch, and a nice thick layer of white oak leaves.....

Gabs have got to be one of the most beautiful Hots ..The colours and patterns are great. I have been told by a higher power(wife) the big NO to Gaboons....damm internet....other hots are OK though

That Gaboon is awsome!
I agree Gaboons are really something...very pretty but yet pretty scarey.

Great close up too~
Awesome!

Captive born gaboons or gaboons that have been acclimated for sometime are usually very docile and lethargic...which is why they are so dangerous. 99.9% of the time, they can be like little pussy cats, but the ONE time you get complacent and cut corners on handling protocol is the time when they nail you...and there is not a person alive who could dodge a gaboon strike if they are within strike range...if you're in range, and they strike, you are royally screwed :)

Those are so awesome Gregg... I have to agree with Tony though ;) But they're always my favourite thing to see at the zoo.

[Gregg M]

Thanks for the compliments...... Gaboons are not scary at all.... Well not after you have been keeping them for years....... Psilocybe is 100% correct in his statements.....

There was a guy who freehandled his gaboon for a number of years before he donated it to our local rescue where I sometimes volunteer...all I can say is he's lucky he donated it before the inevitable happened...

THERY SCARE ME SHITLESS THEY JUST SIT THERE LOOKIN SCARY !!! :)

[sc00t]

Wow she looks real nice Gregg, I like the Natural looking bedding!
Just wondering have you ever been bitten??

[Gregg M]

Never took a hit ever..... I would not want to and I would never want to see anyone suffer a bite from a gaboon..... Not a nice thing to have to go through from what I have read.....

Thanks for the compliments and the question scOOt....
