Can we all just agree that hognose eating is ridiculously adorable?

Here's approximaterly 450, 000 bad quality phone pictures to help prove my point

Watching little Sauron gobble up his pinkie melts my cold, cold heart :love:

Pretty please post pics of your hogs eating in all of their adorableness :please:

Haha do you always hand feed him?

now that's hand feeding lol. very cute.:D

Hey! I counted and that's only 449,000 pics! You owe us one more pic of adorableness!!! He's super cute and I like how he's just so chill about being on your hand, having his lunch. I've had my corn eat on my hand before, it's pretty cool.

That is too cute!

Shhhh, she's a blond... :D

I just love how they don't strike the prey. They just slowly approach and start to nibble.

Love when they come at you with there mouths open!

I always enjoy feeding my hogs, now that I have young hogs to raise up the adorableness continues. It is feeding night for them and I do have a nice HD camera . . . :rolleyes:

When looking at hognoses I just dont understand why people think I am crazy when I say they are cute little snakies...

Hogs are quickly growing to be my favorite species lately.

Great pics!

Oh, also, how young is the hog in this picture?

I know, it's so cute. Just slithers around, notices it, and opens wide :D

He was born late April, so about 4 months old :)

Nice, my male just graduated to an adult mouse. He's been eating a couple of fuzzies for the longest time now.

yes those pictures are priceless! I think they may just be adorable in everything they do! Just don't let mine know they already kind of rule the roost here :) nice photos thanks for sharing!

These things are hilarious!! LOL, I had to youtube hognose, as I've never really seen the difference in their sizes. Then came across this...lol

(the guy doing the video, was just showing off what the hognose does for protection)
I love these snakes now.

Well i wasnt talking to you :p

Harassing coleslaw is great fun though! :D

No one answered my question though lol. Is it normal for hoggie owners to hand feed? Is this like some secret club that i dont know about??

I fed my adult male by hand its just fun that way.

I realized that moments after I posted, but couldn't find the edit button muahaha :P

And I know other people do it, not sure if it's all the time like me though! Sauron seems to prefer if he gets it from me... with tongs or leaving it in his bin, it takes him forever (sometimes a few hours) for him to decide to eat. When it's in my hand, he beelines for it :love:

Thats odd but pretty cool. They dont strike ever?

I used to hand feed my hog, and I have to say I've never seen such voracious eaters. Less than 30 seconds and it's gone!

From my experience, they don't tend to strike as much as they just meander on up to the prey. My male usually will rest his head on the food for a couple of moments before deciding to take a bite and chow down.

Nope, don't strike. Just slither up to it, poke it with his nose, and start eating.

You named your hoggie Sauron... :)
