I'm getting a Hognose pretty quick here, pretty difficult to get here in Canada without shipping from the east coast. As for feeding you just have to make sure you get one from a reputable breeder that has been eating pinkies steadily. Otherwise how could you resist a cute snake like that! They'll even puff up

Cresties are easy, as long as the humidity levels are always above 50% it should be fine. A couple mistings a day will prevent the humidity levels to drop as they need a moderate amount, especially during shedding. Plus these guys like fruit as a staple so you can get the Repashy diet for them to thrive on with mealworms, crickets, or waxworms as treats a few times a week.

Re: What to get

I really like those hoggies. If I were looking for a smaller snake that would definitely be my pick. I was concerned about their diets too. If they ate f/t rodents consistently that would be awesome. The tiger hogs are ultra fierce.
