Re: Stink like a hog?
oh alessia, perish the thought! no smell-o-anythings!
And my hoggies smell fine. They all stink when they poo, and i notice theirs smells a little different, and when they are eating (they sometimes go on strike for no reason) they poo and pee a lot. Perry, my tiny baby boy hasn't had a meal since we got him. He's not lost any weight that i can tell, and in fact, he looks a little thicker. He hisses and flares sometimes though ..i've noticed both my hoggies don't like to eat after the oteher snakes have been around, or if the dogs have wandered over.
Copper went on a three month strike, after eating 3 pinkies, then moving up to 10 fuzzies. Since then she's eaten a fuzzy every couple weeks. She ate the other day, but hasn't poo'd in a while.
I digress.... : )
Really i can't say who i'd rather smell. Between the balls, the boas, the hogs, the corns, the lizzard the bird and the dogs....and my husband...i don't really want to smell ANY poop *lmao*

Re: Stink like a hog?
oh i got typing and forgot to ask...what bedding do you have them on? I had coconut husk at first, but the hogs actually like it a bit dryer, and that holds moisture...and poop/pee smell, really well. It was hard to spot clean. So I switched my girl to all aspin bedding, and found that has worked really well. I've tried coconut husk with a dash of aspin, on other things, to keep the moisture and add a little freshness.

I agree with Kat, I love the smell of a farm, unless it is a hog farm or strictly chicken/turkey farm. **Gags**

Re: Stink like a hog?
One day, my friends, technology will let us share smells across the internet. Then ya'll will know the deliciousness of the perfume I wear 
Edit: and if someone shares hog poop smell with us, we can send fabreeze their way too!

its already possible, just not commercially viable. Non-glasses 3d technology coupled with a special 3d camera and a high-speed internet connection.

Re: Stink like a hog?
I use shaved aspen bedding for them. One thing I'm suprized this forum doesn't have is an instant message option where everyone can log in and group off if they want and have insta messages. no insta smells or holograms though....

Re: Stink like a hog?
The facebook ssnakess page has a chat... but hardly anyone uses it. I actually like it that this forum doesn't have a mass chat thing though. Keeps things cleaner and contained to the threads

Re: Stink like a hog?
My hognose doesn't smell at all. His poo smells quite bad but hey, who's doesn't lol
When he hasn't poo'd his tub smells pretty fresh. He doesn't musk now, used to when I first got him and that was awful.

Re: Stink like a hog?
my tiny baby boy has only flared and hissed a few times. Never played dead or musked. I have to admit, though, that the first time (and only time) our girl hissed, flared, then flopped over ...and musked blah!...was SO CUTE. I felt so bad for her, yet i couldn't stop thinking it was soooo cute! lol
had her for like half a year now and she's never done anything since.
