Is he losing weight?
I have never kept a hognose, but for other snakes I have learned that as long as it is not losing weight, it is not a big issue. I dont know if you do, but you may want to track his weight. That may help you get an idea of where he stands.
Sorry I cant be more help

I asked Brian at snakebytes bhb if I should get a fire belly toad or if I could try scenting a pink with my tomato frog,he said the tomato frog for sure.Now,I gotta just lmao at the thought of rubbing a dead pinky all over my tomato frog,the look on his face,this should be fun,and too me for some reason just funny as hell.
yes god help me,like others have said n here,he may just be wanting a little chill down time but I would rather him not.and I dont see him starving himself to death if hes not sick which I realy doubt he is.Im going to try scenting the pink tonight.shells-n-scales;3664073; said:

depends if it it is a western, southern, or eastern. IF it is not a western, good luck.
When i had my western hognose, every winter it went around 4 months with out eating. At this point, I just turn of its heat pad, and stored it around 65-70 degrees. Then when spring came, I warmed the temperatures up, and he began to eat weekly. He did this his first year. DO NOT USE A NON NATIVE amphibian to scent, toxins can kill the snake. Buy a southern toad, a spade toad, or any other bufo species from the US to scent it.

for scenting or feeding,I think its maybe just going to not eat for winter idk.Berber King;3684307; said:
