Got a couple of females from EBV on Tuesday. Letting them settle in.
Wanted to expand into something new and thought a lot of people were going hognose. Hognose have never caught my fancy. Don't get me wrong I think they are beautiful animals but I never desired to keep them. someone's thread sparked my interest and I knew I had seen them before. I found them in a couple of my many herp books and from there I wanted more. started Googling&YT them and from then on I was hooked. handling a C. b. australus at a local reptile shop did not help.:D
Here are shots of their enclosures I took before receiving them.
this is it for now tell they get bigger.

They are both between 14-16 grams
CBB on 7-30-09 feeding on pinks- these are C.c. paulsoni
Keeping the handling to a strict minimum with a short photo session. no more messing with them tell they eat next week.
