My Hogger (DIAL UP DEATH)

[Hardwikk]

walnut shells?? oh no. my aspen works just fine, i have about 3 inces for him to dig around in. he has some insane tunnels. im always scared he is missing when i get home from work cause i never see him. i work during the daylight hours so i guess he is out and about when im gone.

And i didnt name it gonzo cause the nose. no know who dr. gonzo and raoul duke is?

Well I can't think of any other reason why a Hogger would be named "Gonzo". The Gonzo I've heard about eats tires to the tune of "Flight of the Bumblebee", loves chickens, and has this weird long nose. Is that the Gonzo you're referring to?

I love his purlple belly. I would name him Pebbles. I used to have and Eastern Hogger but he never ate. I even rubbed lizards and frogs on the pinkie.

We just brought home a 3 year old Western male. He is eating (I am told) one fuzzy mouse f/t every 7 days.

I was thinking of Gonzo from the Muppet Show

Awesome snake!
I don't know if the venom helps them digest or just subdue their prey.

I named one of mine hamlet. i thought it was a good name for a hog.
Anyway, it is a normal, but probably a possible het for red phase albino. Normaly when a het, or possible het, are born from a red phase or albino parent they have a very deep red color. I held back two normal possible hets from my high red phase albino breeding project which didn't produce anything. They came out an amazing red color. Both stayed that way for a few sheds and a few months later it was more of a brown, but still has an amazing red.
I think yours might be red phase, which is awesome. They are harder to find than green phase and look nicer (in my opinion). I also am partially color blind and can't tell the difference in the green...
