    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hi all,
I've been playing with snakes for about fourty years now, and have caught, and kept a few hoggies during that time. They are wonderful animals. Recently, I was told that Madagascar Hog nosed snakes can get as big, and bigger than my Indigos, both in length, and girth. That would place them in the 8-10 ft. range, and as big around as a softball. Is that a correct analagy? Or is someone getting a little carried away? It is difficult for me to imagine a hoggie any bigger than my big male Eastern Indigo. But this guy claims he has such animals in his collection. Thanks,
Tony.
 
From what I understand, yes they are very large. But I think they are from a different family than the Hogs we have around us. Though I would rather see them in person, can you get pictures from this guy?
