I do not intend to rock your worlds, or change anything. I can say, nesting can be improved. Every thing else you guys do, is up to you.

But if and only if, I end up with better results that a lot of you, its not about me. its all about you and what you don't do.

Another problem I thought odd was gravid females. Most gravid female colubrids cycle and form palpable ovum early on. Many hognose keepers state, I did not know it was gravid. I questioned that. Well, guess what, hogs are a bit different and may not form ovum until they shed. How cool is that. Now I understand how that could happen.

No offense, but in the entire time we have conversed, you have offered about three small posts of something real. The rest of the time its all about theory, hypothesis, and other folks feelimgs(social drama) In the time I have posted here, I have posted all manner of real hog stuff. What you folks do with it, is up to you. I am not your teacher, your dad, mother or anyone else that cares what you do. This is like college, you want to learn, then learn. If not, drop out. Here, you question me, Consider, its not my task to teach you to ask better questions, That is your task. In all reality, science is not about answers, its about asking better questions. All answers are temporary. So, ask better questions, and include asking the hognose. TEST IT!
