Re: I finally caved!

Eventually, I would like to get a little male Albino as well. They have babies fairly often at some of the local expos.

I bred Hogs for a few years, awesome little snakes, some of mine never got rid of their defense mechanisms...although for me in captivity...it did not happen often, the snakes always came out of the episodes unscathed. Note the distended vent and sunken belly. They truly "smelled" dead.

Adorable! I'd like a hoggie some day, but 3 snakes is enough for me and my tiny apartment!

Hogs are great and there is always room for one more.

Not when you're stretched to the end of your budget too there isn't. No space + no more money = irresponsible to buy another snake.

Some day though!!! Hoggies are so cute! XD

Super adorable. How old is he?
I too love some of the morphs (lavender, for example), but they are way out of my price range.
