Hog Noses "play dead" as a defense mechanism. It's really cool but like other rear-fangs, like False Water Cobras, once they get used to you, they stop doing all this cool stuff! LOL!
Do they occure naturally where you are?? I'm trying to figure out how he ended up on your porch.
I wouldn't worry about when he's going to shed...I'd be much more concerned with making him comfortable enough to eat for you sometime soon. Younger snakes can't go as long without food as the older ones can.
