    Breeding size???

    What is the breeding size for W. hognose?

    Corn snakes have a #3 rule, 3ft, 300g, & 3 year's old.

    Re: Breeding size???

    Yeah, thanks for asking a question on this forum that I hardly know about... I've read in many places that they reach maturity at 2 years of age, assuming that they are fed the amount of food they should normally have (that way they're the right weight and length).

    My snakes:
    0.1 Kenyan Sand Boa ~Nephthys~ (aka "Linky")

    In a better place:
    1.0 Pastel Western Hognose ~Charon~ 10/3/07-4/24/09

    If you need/want to know anything about Hognose snakes, just ask me.
