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.

Hognose: Madagascan Golden and "Neotropical" info/pic request
Why oh why did hognose.com have to go down just when I was wondering about madagascans? Can anyone tell me about what their temp/housing requirements are? How big do they usually get? Does anyone have pics they can show me (of the golden ones?)
Also, I saw a couple of hogs listed on hognose.com that were grouped into a "neotropical" category that looked WAY cool. Can anyone tell me about those?
Much thanks all!

I keep them in a 3x2x2 vision viv, with an orchid bark and sphagnum moss substrate, with a hide box filled with more moss and a large shallow waterdish.

Neotropical
Brenda,
Are you talking about the Genus "Lystrophis"? Because right now I'm working with L. semicinctus and L. uruguayensis.
Regards.

Hi, Dan-
'Fraid not... I don't recall what the genus was, but it wasn't a "tricolor" (though, I am not sure what "uruguayensis" is, I presume it's another tricolor like semicinctus.)
These hogs had unusually big eyes and seemed to be slimmer than most hogs. I don't remember that well anymore, but I believe there were 2 different species of these showcased on hognose.com and they were either bluish or brown.
Whatever they are, I guess they aren't readily available to the pet trade...
Do you two feed your golden/tricolor hogs anything but mice? I seem to recall reading somewhere that hogs other than westerns need something other than or dislike a diet of just mice. Is that true?
Brenda
