Soooo I've managed after much debating to convince the OH to let me get a hognose 
Sooo excited!
I found a gorgeous one I've fallen in love with, but will have to wait till payday before I can put down a deposit or what not.
I've read so much about them online, but would love to hear stories of any hognoses you guys have!  |

Great choice, i cant give you any stories, my worm does not know he is a hoggie, he is so chilled out has kind of 'puffed' a few times like blowing air out your nose fast, but thats all, i wanted a huffy puffy hoggie, but i do love him!

Thanks, he is a sweetie, i'd never even heard of a hognose before here, or a crested gecko, the evil people here kept posting pics of their adorable cresties, i fell in love, determined i was getting one, the OH said no, but to him, took me ages to get the money as i never have much, felt sooooo proud when i got Fudge, i wanted a harlequin they had 1 and she was just perfect
Then the pics and stories of hoggies started...... again determined to get one, OH again said 'no' (he never learns, said 'no' to Peanut the ferret when i wanted him too)
Yep, this forum is a dangerous place to be
I really want an African Pygmy Hedgehog (guess who on forum is to blame for that lol) but i really cant see that happening anytime in near future
I really dont understand why people think hoggies are ugly?????????? |

Oooh, I'm so jealous, hoggies are on my list, too. It doesn't help that local shops are full of them ( and MBK's, and royals, cresties, etc. ).
Unfortunately, I have no hoggie stories... ( yet - ever hopeful ) |

LOL that's great haha!!
I have no shops near me with hoggies  But I am going on a wee trip to visit a reptiles shop I found online in a couple of weeks hehe. I've also found an online site and have spoken to the guy who runs it. He seems lovely, as do his hoggies!
Gutted I can't get right now.....found the perfect wee man....only 3/4 weeks to wait though!! I really would love a red phase, so I will be patient and wait until one comes around. |

I was surprised how pleasant they are to hold, even if he does decide to use his head to grip me! I just gotta get mine to eat something now!
My local shops don't sell them either, so never really been interested but they are really lovely, and extremely nosey it seems! |
