I don't have numbers to back this up but, westerns seem to be more Friendly then Mexican hogs, my Mexicans are WC. Friendly means, actually utilizes the substrate and the surface. Things like board stacks are used well with the westerns. The Mexican hogs go down and stay down for long periods of time. The kennerlyi seem more keyed to substrate mass temps.
At this time we are keeping Kenyan sand boas, right next to the westerns in similar setups and its fun to see the similarities and the differences.
The Kenneryli seem more fun, they have stronger personalities. I like that sort of thing, so I promote it. All in all hogs are goofy in a good way, if you let them.
