    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

I picked up this 2yr male Western Hog off Craigslist for $70. I've been after one for a while now and I'm loving them even more now that i have one. His personality is amazing, he's so thoughtful about everything he does.. even eating. It's just adorable. I'm assuming this handsome male is a wild type.

I named him Harley... like the Motorcycles... cause ya, bad pun xD

He's a cutie!! Welcome to Hognose, they are like potato chips, you can't have just one!!

I love his pattern.

Ounce for ounce there is no snake out there that packs as much personality into such a small package (and a fun turned up snout to boot!).
 
Thank you, I love him to death. I plan on getting him a girl one day, and yes I know what you mean. I love their babies too, so tiny with the little nose and everything. I cannot wait to get more.
 
I recently acquired a breeding trio. I never thought much of hogs ... till now. I fell in love with them right away. They are adorable! I can't wait to hatch some babies & see if they are as cute as KSB babies.
 
I would vote hognose babies 100% of the time... The fact that they will occasionally play dead makes them beat almost anything else outright...
 
Hard to be cuter than a KSB baby...what wins: tiny eyes or up turned nose?

I know!

That will be interesting to observe, as I have never witnessed that before. :)
 
My friend picked up a KSB from a show and a few weeks later it had a huge litter...I just loved having half a dozen little KSB worms in my hand. Soooooo adorable.

But baby hognose have cute faces and *BIG* attitude when they pop out of the egg!
