anyone know good places in tx to find any hognose? i have been looking but had no luck.

herping in tx is illegal unless on private land.

since when? i know you need permits(which i have). but i was told by a game warden that only road collecting is illegal

Texas is about 99% privatly owned , so when they made road hunting illegal they basically made it to where you can only hunt on private land with permission. There is very littl;e public land available to herpers here in Texas...sucks..BTW some good areas for nasicus nasicus is Odessa Midland area, good places for nice red Gloydi is north Texas along the Red River.
Hope that helps!!..

Ive got a buddy that lives in TX that has a 37 acre farm(i think he said)

He bought a couple of trucks(new freighliner semi) from the company I work for.... he found out that I breed/keep hognose while he was up here(TN - he made some damn good salsa lol) and invited me down - he said he seen alot of them on his land!

Something I am really considering doing is flying down there this summer and taking tons of wild photos.... habitat shots, etc and making a caresheet/information book out of it.

I think it would be really cool anyways.

After talking to him this evening ... it was more like 37,000 acre.... not 37 * my bad haha
