although im a novice hog keeper..ive read a bunch...i think that should do fine...as long as horizontally it has the same area as a 15-20 gallon tank it should be fine...just provide lots of aspen...ive only caught my little hog climbing once...and as they are very ungraceful creatures she fell off...hehe...but that size should do...i would be wary when breeding though...better to have a even bigger tub for adult when breeding...but seems like u like ur animals singular...one kenyan...one ball..etc...o ya...congrats on ur conicuses...atleast i think that was u that posted  ...adorable guys...well...since ur starting off with an adult...and probably is pretty acclimated to eating f/t mice..etc...im sure u'll have no problems...just make sure ur hand isn't in there when she has mice...cuz unlike a kenyan...if they get a hold of u...they start chewing...and u might even have a slight reaction...anyway...to make the long story short...make sure u provide lotta ventilation...basic husbandry for kenyans will apply to the hog as they are both low humidity burrowing snakes...and both eat vigorously...post some pics of ur hog when u get it...or if u already have it...would love to see her ...oh and what are u gonna call her?...still going with the LOTR theme?
