    Re: Divided T8, ball on one side, Hog onthe other?

    Not with a 8/10 grams hatchling you will never find it again and it will never eat, plus hognose do not use hides.

    It's will take 2 years for a female to be about 200 grams if properly fed, that's the weight you usually see on a 3/4 month old BP.

    To give you some perspective this is a 12 grams animal (about 5/6 month old and good feeder) in a 6 quarts tub, that's already a lot of space for an animal that size and you would be amazed how many people have feeding issue with hognose even in something like a 6 quart tub.
