Hello, everyone. This is a bit of an introduction for me also, as well as my new hoggie.
I tend to hang out at Cornsnakes.com because up until a week ago, cornsnakes were all I kept. Then, someone on the CS.com forum posted a pic of their hoggie and I was hooked. After talking with lots of owners/breeders and researching the web, I decided it was time to venture out of the cornsnake realm.
I found an 18g normal Western male at the Portland Expo last weekend. I snapped him up (he was the only young male there!) and have been absolutely delighted with him since. He has already eaten twice for me and comes out several times a day. He likes to hang out under my shirt, curled up against my neck when I am reading on the couch.
I still love my corns - I think they have nice personalities and I love their rainbow colors . . . but I am totally addicted to my hoggie! He is the funniest thing and such a sweetheart. I can't believe how quickly I have gotten attached!
Enough talk, on to the pics!
Presenting Cyrano de Hogerac, Mr. Cutie-patootie! (except when he poops in my hair, like he did this morning!
)
Checking out the new digs:
I love his black tongue!
Lounging on the couch
Pic with a dime to get a sense of size
Nomming on his first pinkie! What a good boy
And one of my faves - soaking up the warmth of the laptop while I was resizing pics. ~LOL~ He stayed there for about an hour, hanging out with me.
Thanks for looking! As you can tell, I am a little obsessed with my new baby
