Thought I would share pics of probably the rarest hognose to exist.

This is a locale specific eastern hog. It is a 2013 wc animal owned by my good buddy Walter Kidd. It has been in captivity since August of last year, and pounds toads like no tomorrow. Wipe the drool off your keyboard and yes it is leucistic. The pictures were taken by my fiance, and I am the one holding him. We haven't weighted him but I estimate him to be around 350 grams. With some luck Walt is going to breed it this coming spring. These guys will not be disappearing like the westerns We have a nice proven female to pair him with, but are currently trying to track somemore nice females down if anyone has a line on any. What do you guys think? Please save the negative comments for someone else. Before anyone says it, it is an eastern 100% no questions asked, and yes it is leucistic. Happy looking.
