My first hogs!

I picked up my first two hogs today! I'm just loving these guys. I never really took a close look at them before, but they are a lot of fun.

First up is a big normal gal I picked up on Craighlist for 100$. She's just over 500grams! She was bred last year, I was wondering if they can clutch the season after without another matting? I know some snakes can do this and I know that hog can double clutch in a season.

She did not want to have her pic taken! I'll let her settle in and try to take better pics. She was all puffed up and trying to look like a rattlesnake when I fist opened the bag.






Next up is my Albino female from Rich Macias. He sent me a pic of her that was 'okay' and he said 'she's more red in real life'. He wasn't kidding!! Check out this color (I have a proper camera, heehe, I poked fun at him in an email already). She's 40 grams.





I'm excited about getting some projects going. I'm already set up to get a normal breeder size male. An Extreme red breeder female. Another normal breeder sized female. And a very awesome baby male red phase anaconda.

Blood red albino anacondas here we come!

If you dont mind me asking, how old is the albino female? Your hogs look great.

Thanks for responding. Not to bother you again, but do you know how long she was when you got her? She is an awesome animal!

Hmmm...I don't normally check their length, I'm guessing she was about 8-10 inches at the time.

Okay. That makes me feel much better. I picked up a 2011 100% het albino yesterday and she is 13 in. long. She seemed to be a little small to be a year old, but now i know she is. Thanks for the replies,

Ah. Yup, 13 inches sounds about right for a year old gal!
