Not sure exactly what type of Hoggy it is, but I love it all the same. I've wanted one of these for a few years now, after I saw a wild one out in OK while out bringing feed to the cattle. It was an adult and it was just the coolest thing, let me pick it up and handle it with no fuss. Fell in love with them right there, lol.

But yea, so really happy to finally have one. Craigslist, FTW again.
 
Man, this lil' one is active. Then again, after being cooped up in a container so would I. But it seems like every time I look over at the enclosure it's moving around, burrowing, climbing, etc. Certainly is more active than any other snake I've kept.
 
Nice western!!
 
Nice! I didn't know they were climbers lol looks kinda funny in the 'tropical' viv

I didn't either, but it spent all it's time climbing up the fake plants that I ended up moving it into an empty exo terra I had set up for arboreal geckos . I never see it that it's not up on the 3D background, in the plants or on the branch work unless it's drinking out of the dish. It's a weird snake, lol


ohh pretty snake! how many pinky's does it put down??

Two a week
