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.

New to Hoggies... Color Question
I got this adorable male hognose today, and it was given to me as a hypo. Definately a male, and I don't really care about the color for any reason other than curiosity.
What are your opinions please?

It's a pretty snake but definetly not a hypo. Hypos have a almost purple translucent colored belly.

That's what I thought from the online reading I have been doing.... however looking at him next to the normals, he's considerably lighter and belly is more purple that brown. Any thoughts?

Do you have any side by side comparison shots with another hog? Belly pic I'm talking about. Where did you get him? Any lineage info from the person that you picked him up from? Where in Fl are you?

I'm in Jax.... I don't have any other pics. He was a gift so I know nothing about lineage. He's in isolation for the next 8 weeks so I won't have any way to take pics of him next to any other hogs until he's been vet checked, etc.
Do you have any pics of normals vs others?
I have lots of ball pythons, and some Old World Rats and GTP, etc but this is my first Hog... I'm loving him.

You got that right! lol 
That's a very nice looking hog! I don't believe its a hypo either. Not a genetic hypo anyways. A side by side ventral shot with a normal would definitely help! Congrats on a great gift!
