Don't see why not.

I'll traumatize myself if I have to cut a cricket in half and have the frogs reject it... Haha. Biglegs might eat it, though... It seems she eats anything... Including fingers that are double the size of her own body.

I want a hognose. I almost bought one at a show, i just don't have the room. But when I think about, I don't really want any non-garters.

My male is 12" long, and he's 18-20 months old. I've been told he's small for his age, but his growth has been steady. I don't like to overfeed, and I don't want a huge snake. Males mature at 15-20" long, so about the same length as some garters, but he will be a heavier bodied snake. He's twined through my fingers (makes it hard to type one handed.) I often handle him when I'm online!

Females are much bigger, closer to 3' long...

This pic is a few weeks old, just after his last shed.

Good looking Hognose

Thanks, we like him too!

And a funny story, hognose snakes were a recommendation from my ex-husband's new wife! She's the one I was talking about garter snakes with last week too! He won't have "snakes or rats" in his house, so she always visits with mine when she picks up the boys!

Wow! He's beautiful! Never had a hognose,always wanted one! His neck is amazing! I've never seen such a burly male before!!!

Very handsome hognose! I didn't realize that they were about the size of a garter. I thought they were bigger. Thank you for sharing!

That is insane! Looks like these things happen a fair amount! I would also like to add that I too have a tarantula as a pet. (Ok, several.)

I would love to have another! Had a Rosehair for quite a few years! Had a pink toe too but since he was a male didnt have him as long!

Spiders are awesome. We have tons and tons of little jumping spiders and I've considering setting up a little colony in a terrarium but not sure how.0
