Decided to take photos of my hogs while I was reading the thread the other thread. I didn't wanna hijack so new thread!

My first hognose and very first snake. Purchased as a tiny male at 9 grams. Now weighs 126 grams.

Tail. I've since realize he is a she.

Second snake I got was this male hognose. Evans Hypo, poss het pink pastel.

Tail.

Continue in next post. Img limit :P

Third hognose was this female. She's anaconda, poss het toffee. When I bought her they didn't mention that but I found an old ad for her. Matched up the spots.

Tail.

Fourth was this little het toffee male. Love his color, but my cell didn't pick it up well. He's feisty and adorable <3

Tail.

Next I bought a pair of albino poss het axanthic. Now when I say pair I don't mean 1.1 but one is a male (supposedly) and the other he wasn't sure. I'm not sure either as they're so small. I'll be having a friend probe them once he's moved in with me next week.

First one

Second one

Feel free to point out any errors in my sexing. And thoughts on the two albinos would be appreciated! One's eaten fantastically. The other hasn't eaten yet.

Some pretty sweet hogs you've got.

Nice hogs! The first one also looks female to me. You're making me want a nice fat female haha.

It is crazy how fast they grow! When they cooperate and eat anyways haha

Thank you! I love em. Already planning what I want next. The person I got my het toffee from is going to have some I want in a few months. Hopefully will buy from her again!

Thanks! The big fat females are awesome. The conda female almost bit me during feeding. I lost my tongs and she has a very enthusiastic feeding response haha.

All of that looks correct. Nice hogs! As far as the baby pair goes, since you're having them probed i'll leave that be.

This makes me miss my hoggies so much.... they're gorgeous!!!

What are you planning to get next?

I do kind of want to get a female, but I think I'll wait until I have Apollo's care and keeping down before I add another hog. Picky little bugger.

valkea · 08-30-16, 05:47 PM

Thanks Andy! The babies seem to be male but for peace of mind I'll still probe 'em.

Aw thanks Tsubaki! I love my hogs, they're so ridiculous.

I'm thinking I'll get an axanthic female. Not sure what else! Good plan though! I'm going to hold off adding any new ones until mine are all settled and feeding regularly as well.

Plus I want my next snake will be a good feeder. Been looking at African House Snakes. So far seems like they are ravenous eaters. I like that. Then once I feel like I am more confident about Apollo, a nice fat girl hog
