Milking Western Hognose for Research Purposes

[Aaron_S]

Has anyone ever milked hognose snakes before? I think being fixed fanged and "rear" fanged would make it more difficult.

You would need to replicate the prey similar to a frog and I would agree a ball would make sense in that case. I would try to have something like you suggest, some type of pocket however instead of trying to aim the teeth to some pockets I would try to make it so the venom slid down the ball into a container for collection.
