Sure, we can keep a hognose alive in even the poorest of conditions in captivity, however, this is just a testament to how tough these snakes are. However, they will not thrive and live to their potential when it comes to life span and reproductive longevity.



I know, you all do not like Frank because he comes off as demeaning and condescending sometimes. Just try to read between the lines even though it may seem like someone is holding up their first three fingers and all you see is the middle one. There really is a lot of good, valuable information in his posts.



The thing is, Frank is not trying to be the cutting edge hognose breeder mixing 5 different genetic mutations into one snake. He is not trying to make friends by being a hognose rock star. He is a KEEPER who is actually interested in the hows and whys animals he keeps. To me, his information is more honest than those trying to be top dog in the hognose game.
