Hognose shopping

[baldegale]

You've gotten all good advice so far.

I agree that aspen is a great substrate for hognose. I don't like aspen at all, all my other snakes get coco coir, but for burrowers like hognose aspen is my favorite.

I'd also follow Deborah's advice on starting with a small enclosure. Deb knows her stuff and won't steer you wrong.



Here's a photo dump of my boy Cosmo....

if you dont have a drill or anything to make vent holes, find a cheap soldering iron, they make the best vent holes to be honest

I'm not exactly sure of his age, since he came to me accidentally and with some question marks.
Here's the link to his story if you're interested:

As of now, he's weighing in at a whopping 84 grams and seems to be taking a food break (hasn't eaten the last 3 weeks).

Well brought home a ~3 month old female normal get albino. She was the biggest of the 7 that breeder had and 1 of only 11 total between both shows. She shed on the way home in one complete piece so that was nice. Weighs in at 8 grams. I was told she’s been on unscented f/t pinkies since hatching. Have her settling into a 2.7q tub about half filled with aspen chips. She has given me her most impressive cobra rattlesnake impression but no playing dead. Currently burrowing throughout the cage. Sorry for not attaching a picture but I’ll start a progression thread after her first meal.

Thanks for all the advice thus far.
