There are red, green, and albino morphs that I know of for western hognoses.

This guy has some pictures of the different morphs.

Tri-Colors are from Mexico, right? Do they grow as big as Westerns?

Tricolors are from South America. I think they may be larger than westerns, but I don't recall. I'd have to do some research on the net.

Really? Alright, they're from S. America. If they're all the way from there do you think they would be harder to get/tame than a Western (most probably but I just wanted to ask)? I planned on getting a Western anyway but I just wanted to know more about them.

There are people breeding tricolors in the US, so there might not be as many tricolor breeders to choose from, but they are available.

hogs rule I like the different albinos along with the axanthics. BHB has some killer snows and caramels. big bucks for those bad boys. i don't think the caramels will be available till next year

There are two species of tri-colors available in the US. They are from South America and they do grow smaller than westerns.
I thought of working with them but decided to sell my male off last year.

Alex Hues has some tricolors on his site.
And BHB has a snow hog that I would just love to get

i'd definitely hit up alex hue... his animals are top notch from what i've seen (in person).

And from what little I've seen, they are priced very well. :)
