Annnnnnd I now have potato chip #2.
Thanks to our esteemed Deb, I got turned on to a phenomenal breeder who has sent me this precious morsel.
Meet Murray!
Background:
I wanted an extreme red but near normal hoggie (kinda partial to how God made them with these guys, they’re just so darn pretty on their own), but I would only send my $ to the most ethical of breeders. With hognose you have to be extremely careful who you deal with because of rampant crypto issues, so it took a little time to find Mr. Perfect from the short list of breeders I was willing to support.
Deb turned me on to Jason Taylor at Beyond GenetiX and voila! Murray!
Murray was named after another dearly loved redhead, Murray Hewitt (Flight of the Conchords).
See the resemblance?
My Murray is set up in his quarantine tub right on my nightstand where he will live for the next few months before being moved to the creature room. I can tell you he is the SWEETEST boy ever. He’ll have a day here or there of sass mouthin’, but for the most part he’s a friendly little dream. Plus he’s eating like a flipping champ!
Good breeding, people. It can’t be overstated.
Thanks again Deb!!!!
