Re: Western hognose help!
Thanks, I think I am going to go with the aspen since I've been using it with all of my other snakes, and its been working really well for them.
When I get a new snake I like to try and feed it the same way the previous owner would have fed it for the first 2 weeks to make sure it doesn't refuse anything.. but then I work on switching them.. This has worked well for me with switching my BPs to f/t from live so I'm going to try it with the new guys too.. I'm really excited to see the hognose when it gets here! I've never seen one besides in pictures :)
Re: Western hognose help!
They are woderful little snakes. Just keep an eye out when handling to make sure he does not start nibbling on your finger. Some folks who are allergic can have a really bad reaction if the rear fangs dig in. Best of luck with all of your new additions!
Re: Western hognose help!
Yeah, I have had some slight allergic reactions due to insect/arachnid bites so I will have to make sure to be careful not be get bitten by this little guy.. just in case I have the same sort of reactions
