>>It is hard to not fall for these hognose isn't it? Sounds like you have some nice ones. Did they come from Twin City? A good green hog is a joy to just look at in the light.

LOL! Once in love with a Hoggy, your heart's gone forever.
No, I didn't get K & N from TCR. I got them via the breeder, Jodi Aherns. I'm totally in love with the guy - though I'm old enuff to be his mother... - because K & N are my first Hoggies and it was important to me to find someone that continued to care for their snakes once placed. Jodi has been a DOLL and in the beginning put up with one or more phone calls daily, has calmed me and is teaching me to be a good Hoggy momma. I asked if he would be with me for the life of my kids and he assured me he would be and he's not let me down a SECOND since getting the boys. He's answered every question - no matter how stupid it appears to a longstanding breeder - I've ever had; lectured me on putting my money in an independent vs. a chain store (you gotta respect someone that stands up for what they believe no matter how they think it's going to be accepted); always returned my phone calls if not within minutes or a few hours, within the same 24 hour period. The guy is a saint; I'm not the easiest person to deal with - he'll concur! LOL!!!
Jodi laughs at me. I can only tell Niizh is green when I compare him to Kenabec, a normal. Just yesterday at TCR Jodi asked in an incredulous voice, "You can't see the green in him?"
"Nope. Not unless I compare The Boys."
Jodi just shook his head.
When I've got Niizh out and 'playing' with him, I'll take him over to the open window and let him get some sunlight as I look for his green. Then I can see it a little bit.
I don't care. Green's green whether I can see it or not. Maybe he's not SCREAMING green to me. Who cares? He's my precious perfect and as such he's the best green Hoggy in the entire world.
Yeah. I think my boys are nice. I'm very happy with them and their breeder. Enuff so I want more - my experience with Jodi has just been a joy from get go.
And I guess Jodi can handle me as he's willing to sell me MORE precious Hoggies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah. I'm in Hog Heaven! ----- mk
