Patternless orange-and-cream with ruby eyes. Absurdly bright for a dirt snake. Handles like a warm rope. Has never balled up for us, not once.

Fourteen years, one rack room, and an unreasonable number of clown combos. Every animal ships with a feed log going back to its first meal, and we do not sell an animal that has not eaten five times in a row.
Feeding record
Taking frozen/thawed pinky every 5 days. One seasonal refusal last winter, back on schedule since.
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.
