Just been to the local reptile shop pick up some pinkies as Ariels due her first feed with me on Thursday, looking round and saw a little Hognose and oh my days are they beautiful! How are they to keep as noticed a few posts on here about them; I know they are semi-venomous due to having fangs at the back of their mouths but just and owners info would be nice!

Not really thought about a hoggie before but after reading this thread and looking at a few vids there little characters are so appealing! Looks like I'm gonna have to sweet talk the OH again ;)
technomacleod Posted - 06/03/2013 : 08:03:57
Haha they sound like right little characters! Definitely considering one later this year! Just got my first corn and already want another snake!

Will also add that ours has a weird eating behavior. It doesn't matter how you offer her the mouse, whether head first or bum first she will always take it just below the shoulders. Now most snakes would work their way to either end, not Stevie, she insists on folding it in half. Not always a pretty sight, we do get quite a few popped mice which she then smears over herself and her viv. I don't know if this is common eating like this for a hoggie.

@Smart Bunny: Normal Hoggie breeding season is actually now! Plenty of locking going on, so give it a few months and they'll be everywhere! However, they double clutch very easily, so you'll get more babies popping up in October too! My Adult Male, Scout, has turned into the foulest, angriest little ball of sexual frustration, lots of thrashing and accidentally smacking his head into his rub in rage, full on rattlesnake hissing and huffing! He's headbutted me a few times where it's been hard enough for his little nose to actually hurt a teeny bit lol!

Despite that though, Techno, I highly recommend them! If you're confident enough to deal with them going off their food, and their full on attitude, they make very rewarding snakes! Not all of them are fussy, but they know how they like things when it comes to food. Scout likes it just to be left in on his flat hide, Pyro likes you to tap it about on top of his log, where he then pops out and grabs it, and my little lady Rocket likes it warmed slightly via hairdryer hehe

same here, I think when they were still evolving they must have been a bit stupid and just kept on slithering into a wall repetitively until they looked like that and then somehow managed to mate

don't hate me hoggie lovers, you know I am right

Another one bites the dust............
Snakes are so addictive!!!!
technomacleod Posted - 05/03/2013 : 18:16:03
I would love one! Might wait until later on when Ariel moves into a 3ft viv and use my hatchling one for a baby Hognose!
