I just bought a pair of tri color hog hatchlings - these are the coolest snakes i have ever had and i am very excited about keeping them and eventually breeding them. They are rear fanged and slightly venemous to toads too - also they have an excellent habit of shaking their tails like a rattlesnake!

I have never seen that species, they are pretty. I used to have a hognose snake that I caught in South Carolina, when I was a kid. They do some weird stuff, puffing all up, tail shaking, and are very good at playing dead.

 
Very cool. I find the hognose snakes to be pretty cool.

 
tri-colors are awsome hope they eat well for you, they require quite a bit more humidity than the westerns and are alot more harder to get eating. Are these ones eating FT?
