    Re: so i want to keep some hognoses.

    Hognose venom is low in 3ftx (3 finger toxins) and rich in proteins. Most colubrid venoms (and elapid venoms) are the opposite. Hognose venom is medically insignificant.

    Swelling, a little bit of pain and itching. The longer you let them chew, the worse it can be.

    Technically, they are venomous. In reality, they are harmless.

    Remember - technically a bearded dragon is also venomous.........
