Recently I got female 2003 western hognose from www.albino.hognose.com She eats unscented pinkies like its going out of style. But I have heard and seen many ppl on this forum having feeding problems with their hognoses. She ate 3 times the first week. Is that normal for a hog to eat that much or is it too much. I do not want to over feed her. I only fed her the third pinkie cuz some of my cali kings would not eat it.
She was fed on Monday, Wensday, and Saturday of this past week.
Is it normal for a western hognose to have such a strong feeding response. She eats better than my rosy boas do and thats what surprises me.


thanks,
john
