What temps are required for W. hognoses?

Turtlequest Sep 14, 2005 09:59 PM

I need to find out "exactly" what the daytime and nighttime temps should be for my western hogs. I get a different answer from caresheets and webpages.

What do you keep your westerns at?

thanks.

As you can see from my post above, the temperatures you are providing are below the normal range that active hognoses can be found in.
And it is far below the temperatures needed immediately after feeding. I hope that post clear things up for you, good luck.
