I've had my female for two years now, I figure she's your run of the mill "normal" Western Hognose. I got her for myself as a birthday present when she was a wee hatchling. I like to call her my "Birthday Snake"


A few weeks ago, I picked up this pretty male for her, and he is much lighter in coloration. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about that? (Btw, they are both on aspen shavings, this was the first thing I put him in when I got him home.)


Here they are side by side for color comparison:


He was too pretty to pass up! Only problem is, he hasn't eaten for me as of yet. I've had him for about two weeks now, so maybe he's just stressed from the show. He's a pretty large male, and I was assured he eats well on f/t mouse hoppers. I'm not super concerned YET, but I always get a little nervous when a new acquisition refuses to eat..

Hello, all you hoggie enthusiasts!
