    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....

Can I get a second opinion, please?

Just want to confirm once and for all the sex of one of my hognose. Now I'm 99% sure it's a female. However it was sold as a male and I've been second guessing myself. First snake / first hognose.

And the other thing I'm curious about, what morph would you say the non normal is?

He's unfortunately just going blue. He was sold as a specific morph (Evans Hypo) but the seller was not the breeder and he couldn't remember where he'd purchased him. I'm assuming the seller was being honest but I'd love second opinions. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
 
I would say it is female but it is hard to say what morph while it is in blue. Take more pictures after shed.
 
I can't really tell much from the photo's but here's a comparison of my pair for reference.

Male- Normal 50% poss het Caramel, Dutch Hypo(=Frosted).

Female- Frosted.

Thanks so much for the photos!

My normal does seem to have a much more tapered tail than my male. (S)he is undersized however (poor start, trouble feeding for a while) but has a great appetite now.

My male after his shed.

I've also picked up a new female.

I've got small hands (well, I'm just small/short in general) which has led to some confusion about the size of my snakes. This one I haven't weighed but was told sh'es 290g. My others are 60g (Male) and 80g
 
Those new photo's are much clearer. I'm leaning towards female for your normal as well after seeing those.

As for the morph of your male, it looks like an Evans Hypo to me. The belly, the colours, all match :)
