Why should you choose a Hognose snake?

[Sylphie]

Hi there,
under such a looser thread I have a question for all owners and enthusiasts of hognose snakes. Why hognose? What in your opinion distinguishes them from other snakes? Why would you recommend it to others?

Personally, I do not have a hognose, but I am willing to read your opinions and who knows, maybe it turns out that they are ideal for someone? :D


So go on, please share your views!

hognoses are very easy to feed and they are just so lovely :D
I like how they look and the way they behave :) and their little nose is so cute ^^
and then they don't get big, here they are also rare :D

Saying why hog nose is like saying why a bci or why a brb, it just comes down to personal preference

jpsteele80, I know, and you are completely right, but I think that such a loose topic in hognose subforum can be just fun for every enthusiast :) And I'm sure that hognose like every other snake species have something special in itself, that none other snake have. I just don't know what... yet.

My little cousin is convinced their nose is turned upright because they fall of branches all the time :D What's not to love about hogs!
