    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....

My first Hognose Snakes...opinions?

I just recently purchased a small "collection" of odd and end snakes. This pair of Hognose snakes was a part of the group. I've never owned one and I think I am starting to REALLY like these.
Anyway, let me know what you think. I have not read up much on "morphs" and such, but I am cramming trying to figure it all out ASAP.
Both ate out of my hand (very gentle) today and each took a F/T mouse.

Very nice. I'm not really morph-savy myself when it comes to western hogs, but the reddish one looks like a hypo. The other could be an anery, or maybe just a light-colored normal (I have one that looks similar).
 
Westerns are a lovely snake. The fact they don't bite out of aggression or fear is a wonderful attribute. However, as your first snake, never let them chew on you... Especially if you are allergic... Otherwise, handsome set of snakes.
