    lol, i beg to differ. they vary by snake just like bp's, i had a hognose that ate my hands alive.
    Thats what a few people have said on this site. But it is hard to believe because I have had many, many hognose through my life time and have Never been bit. They do strike for the affect of trying to make you believe they are mean (for protection), but have never been bitten. But...who am I to say that they have never bit someone.

    Oooooppps. Caught my self in a lie. I do know one person that was bit, BUT.....he was holding a toad in his hand feeding it at the time. It was a case of mistaken identity.

    Ahhh the eastern hognose.................that's what started this house of snakes I have.
    My son cought one up north of here last year, he brought it home for the summer and Jake was his buddy.
    I made him release it before winter...............and I was sick of all the toads in my house!

    I made it a year and I couldn't handle listening to the pouting 6yr old anymore!
    And now I think mom is more hooked than the boy!
