i am sold on getting a hognose. i've looked everwhere in my city and none of my good pet shops ever sell them. i've found a few online though. there is a reptile show in taylor michigan coming up that i am gonna go to. is there a good chance i could find one there? what is considered a good price for them? all i want is a plain old western, not a morph or anything. there is an area around here that is covered in easterns but i don't want to take one from the wild or deal with the toad thing that the easterns are infamous for.

You SHOULD be able to find one at a show, although I understand that this isn't the best time of year for hatchlings. They're not a very common snake in petstores, which is probably a good thing. (They're a little quirky)

I am glad to hear you have done some reseach on hognoses and am thinking logically about the Easterns. You won't regret a plain old Western! I would like to recommend John Meltzer, he has frequented this forum many times. Ask him what he has got.
