★ 4.8 (268 reviews)
We keep hognose the way they live: deep sand, hot basking spot, and no hovering. Known for arctic and lavender lines, and for telling you honestly when an animal is a picky eater.
Feeding record
Taking frozen/thawed pinky every 5 days. No refusals on record.
Keeping a Western Hognose
A small, upturned-nose shovel of a snake with the theatrical range of a silent film actor. Mock-strikes with a closed mouth, hisses like a punctured tire, then flips belly-up and plays dead with its tongue out. All bluff, no follow-through.
