 Not really a hot, but getting my feet wet a little

I know there is a seperate forum for this, but being this is a ’slighty warm’ snake, and I feel that this forum is taken more seriously, and I plan on being more active on this board in the future, I wanted to post here. Anywhoo...

At the reptile show in Indianapolis yesterday, i picked up my first venomous. I purchased a blonde madagascar hognose that is beautiful! Very well tempered. I know it is far from having a cobra, but I thought it was a good place to start with a very mild rear fanged, and grow from there.

I think I got a pretty good deal, he is about 3 feet long and I paid $60. Normally the solid color snakes don’t appeal to me, but as soon as I saw it I knew it had to come home with me. (I was lookign for a rear fanged already, it wasnt impulse.) I’ll get some pics up in a few hours when Stef gets home from work.

That’s the most gorgeous hognose I’ve ever seen. You’re lucky to own such a great animal.

thank you! The pics don’t do him justice, he really is great. Next time I offer him food I’ll try to get a pic of his hood.
