Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Such a picky little bugger...
I've had my western hoggy for almost 2 years now and she's a wonderful little gal except for one thing....she has to be one of the most fickle little eaters i have ever had. Ever since i got her she was very very shy about feeding in front of me, i almost always had to put her inside her hide with the food to get her to eat it. Over time it got a little bit better but still would rarely eat in front of me. Not too long ago i decided to try something different and got a freshly killed adult mouse and after it was dead i made it bleed a little bit and she ate it immediately. So, once it was feeding time i tried it again and this time she didn't want anything to do with it. So, i ended up just leaving the dead mouse in front of her hide overnight and it was gone when i woke up. I'm glad she eats at least but she can be such a pain in the butt. Has anyone else every had these type of issues with hoggies?

I used to work for a breeder and we always had to give out hogs freshly killed mice... but they wouldnt take gased mice, you had to "bonk" them

I just got my first hognose in Feb., a juvenile & he eats anything I give him without hesitation. I feed f/t and he has no problem accepting it right from the tongs. He is very friendly & loves to get out, he seems to not be shy about anything. Since he is my first hoggie, I can only speak from my experience with him.
