Complicated? to me no. I have been keeping all kinds of herps for about 8 years. I have a hognose and they are terrific; one of my favorite snakes! no they are not complicated, and since you have 6 snakes, you should be experienced enough to get a hognose. If you get one... you will not regret it, trust me on this one. They are very cool looking snakes, almost like they are related to the rattlesnake. I have never been bit by mine, they just hiss... ALOT! but when they get to know you, the hissing goes away a lot, but not totally, because snakes just have bad days sometimes and want to be left alone. So, no hognoses are not comlicated. Sometimes they can be tricky to get to eat, but they adapt.
