Today is my daughter's 11th birthday. Being her father's daughter, most years she asks for reptiles or tarantulas for her gifts. We've been talking about breeding some hognose snakes for fun since they're small and pretty popular. So, that's what she wanted for her bday. We were just going to get one for now, but she got money from grandparents. We found a good deal on a pair on conda het albinos, so her mother and I gave her the rest of the money she needed. Only problem is the breeder can't ship for another week. But she's excited and I think it will be a fun little project.

Daaaang....adopt me! (Except I'm a little too old for that lol)

Very excited to see your hoggies! If I add any more hoggies it will have to be another conda or super conda female to compliment my conda male. ^_^
