Thats what im thinking, but ive currently got a corn-sized viv spare, and it just seems to big for a hoggie...do they need small vivs like corns?

They seem braver than corns so a little extra space wouldnt hurt (depending how much extra space it was). I would go for the hoggie too, just make sure you treat them like the mildly venomous snakes that they are

they have a reputation for being very finicky feeders so make sure you take that into consideration.

corns are much more reliable in the terms of feeding. my hoggie goes on and off his food. about the viv i would personally go for a smaller viv than a corn. give all the topics on here to aid you choice http://www.thehognosesnake.co.uk/forum/
