>>Wow 60k, that's alot for a snake indeed.... Most hobbies aren't cheap that's for sure. This one is no exception, so it seems.

>>When around did this snake morph craze really start to take off? Do you know? I see it spreading though Hog's from what I've been able to find in reading material.

>>When did you start getting into the Hog's?

The reptile morph craze has been around for 10's of years. 15 years ago the big thing was colubrid morphs and even leopard gecko morphs. Bearded Dragons had a good run for some time. The balls started back in the early 90's. I'd say hogs didn't really take off until sometime in the mid 2000's. Maybe sometime around 06 or so when the anaconda hognose morph popped up.

I got my first pair of hognose at the Atlanta Reptile show back in the early 2000's sometime around 01 or 02. Back then hognose were thought of as garbage snakes to the colubrid morph people. My best friend (now brother-in-law) at the time bred highend king and milk snake morphs and he tried to talk me out of buying the hogs. I just loved there look and attitude. I've had hognose ever since then.
