    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....

My new perfect little hoggie, Scarlett :)

I'm in love.
She hasn't offered to bite, she's been crusing around her bin sense she got here around 11:15, and she just ate a mouse pinky for me!
:) couldn't be happier.

That is a handsome snake you got there!!! Congrats on the new acquisition :)
 
Lol yes they do!
That permanent glare is kinda negated by the pudgy little face and upturned nose, especially when her head is about as big as my pinky nail xD
Why so serious little hog?

In the one pic when you open up her deli cup to let her out had me giggling. She is like why thank you I have been waiting for you to open that. Lol making herself right at home All over your stuff. Sooo cute and sooo funny.
 
Lol I was expecting her to curl up and try to hide when I opened the cup, but she lifted her head up and started flicking that tongue around like "thanks bro, nice place you got here, I'm gonna go find a nice warm cranny to crawl into." Lol
She still has yet to use her hide, but I guess her water bowl suffices,

Hahaha I see her peeking. She is a really really nice looking snake. You are really selling me on them. I did a fair amount of research yesterday , and they really seem like a relatively easy species to keep. I'm really considering purchasing one. She is so cool. I would love a snake that is active during the day. Finally someone to see. Lol unlike my ball pythons that I don't see until the night. Come to think of it I don't really see them ever. Unless it's close to Friday which is there feeding day.
 
I wonder if she thinks she's hidden? Haha.
If I was allowed to get another snake (my family is scared of my adorable little scaley ones for whatever reason), I think another hog would be it, totally fell head over heels for the little guys ^_^
I'd recommend getting from the breeder I did, just because she's a well started little thing and simply beautiful :3
She likes to sit at the front of her tub and watch everything that's going on, and when I take off the lid she pops up to say hello instead of trying to hide, definitely a bold little thing.
My ball python is the same, with the occasional meandering around her enclosure, then back to her warm hide, though I do love when she decides to set out and observe us, she's too pretty to stay cooped in her hide all the time lol

Lol Thats exactly how I feel about my ball pythons. I have a few that cost me a pretty penny . I wish I could see them lurking around more. Especially my pied he is so cool I wish I could always see him lol. He is a typical man. Only appears for the dinner bell lol.
 
Lol
I never see my Pancake move with any sort of intent until she smells food. Lol
Well I was told she was a bluffer, so I expected a strikey nervous little snake, but she's proven to be quite the opposite.
Even ate for me about 40 minutes after she was unboxed and settled in, wonder if she thinks she's a big burmese? :p sure acts like she doesn't have a care

I've left her alone besides checking up on her everyday, I plan on getting her out this weekend, can't wait ^_^

Well I opened up her tub and she lifted her head up, she didn't mind my presence until I tried to pick her up, she (understandably) tried to get away from the big pink grippers coming her way lol.
But she didn't try to bite or anything.
She tried to burrow in my sleeve and it was probably the cutest thing I've seen.
She's quite the explorer, but she'd rather burrow into the covers and get cozy :phttps://vimeo.com/117685823

Hands xD

I love her pattern! A couple of my BPs will hang out, but most of them just want to go explore. These guys eat mice, right? I was at a show the other day and someone said they feed theirs toads! I feel like that would be reeeeaaally messy!
 
Yeah she eats pinkys, and I know a lot eat mice and rats, but the one at our local wildlife center eats strictly toads too..
I suppose it's individual?
But I've heard the eastern species eat primarily toad.
Apparently their rear fangs help pop toads and frogs because some of them fill up with air to avoid being eaten. I thought that was interesting.

Pop a toad... Ick! :) she is gorgeous, does she burrow around in her bedding? I've only ever held one and it tried to dig in my hand. Too cute!
 
But yes, I think feeding toads would be gross :/
Plus watching videos of people feed live frogs are sad because the poor little things struggle and chirp.
And I don't think I would have the heart to throw one in the freezer.
Mice are good enough for me.
