Very nice gabXrhino Gregg! Just a few questions:

Is he a F1 or off-sping of gabXrhino?

Also, how about his behaviour, more gaboon, more rhino or a new temperment?

Is he a eastern X rhino or western X rhino?

A very interesting and beautiful specimen!!

Its a wasrern x rhino f2....
And it has a temperment all its own...... Can be nippy at times...... I would have to say that on the whole it acts more like a gaboon...... The threat displays are more like gaboons and I keep it like I was keeping a gaboon.......

what does crossing a hot do to the venom?

I dont think it has been studied that much.

I will have to guess it would be a mix of both....... I the case of a bite from a cross I am positive the SAPV will work being that it covers both gaboons and rhinos...... And you also must keep in mind that this cross does happen in nature....... I have seen a hand full of wild caught crosses........ If the cross did not happen in nature I would not keep them or try to cross them myself.......

Cool, thanks for the reply. That was one thing I've been wondering about for the longest time.
