Why should you choose a Hognose snake?

Hi there,
under such a looser thread I have a question for all owners and enthusiasts of hognose snakes. Why hognose? What in your opinion distinguishes them from other snakes? Why would you recommend it to others?

Personally, I do not have a hognose, but I am willing to read your opinions and who knows, maybe it turns out that they are ideal for someone?


So go on, please share your views!

Re: Why should you choose a Hognose snake?

hognoses are very easy to feed and they are just so lovely
I like how they look and the way they behave and their little nose is so cute ^^
and then they don't get big, here they are also rare

Saying why hog nose is like saying why a bci or why a brb, it just comes down to personal preference

jpsteele80, I know, and you are completely right, but I think that such a loose topic in hognose subforum can be just fun for every enthusiast And I'm sure that hognose like every other snake species have something special in itself, that none other snake have. I just don't know what... yet.
