- We got our first hognoses from Nate Miracle and unbox them to reveal our first LAVENDER! And she was a spicy little thing, my goodness. We also got our first RBE Pastel hognose and she is absolutely gorgeous. Both of these babies are stunning and we are happy to share our experience of receiving them with you!
And thank you to Nate Miracle for our gorgeous girls!

Im dying for a hognose! Cant wait to get one. Ive had snakes all my life, but never a hognose. Great video!
Aw, well they are truly fabulous pets, hope you get one! Maybe you'll even get one from us one day 😎
Beautiful babies. I wish I could have one. But my husband is terrified of snakes.
I understand, it can be hard to move past fears like that. But there is hope! As a big fan of reptile tubers like Snake Discovery, Green Room Pythons, and Clint's Reptiles, I have seen that they have a huge number of people following them who used to be very afraid of snakes, and now have their own! Their comments sections are full of stories like that.
I believe that learning about a thing reduces the fear of that thing.
So when you learn that the majority of snakes are harmless, slow moving, quite sweet, and not slimy or icky but smooth and relaxing to hold, it can make a big difference!
Maybe see if he's up for watching some of those videos with you. Who knows, might come around to the scale side eventually ☺️
They were so tiny ❤❤
They were!! And still are 🥰 However, the last two we got are even smaller 🥺 I'll send you some vids when I get a chance!
@@HeartsScales oh my goodness, that is tiny, I can't wait 😍
My first hog is exactly like Jasmine! Got her a few weeks ago and I was wondering if you have any tips for me on getting her more comfortable with handling? I’m not sure where to start…..
Aww! Congratulations! Is she a Lavender as well? The way we have been socializing her is making sure we hold her for 5-10 minutes once a day, a couple of times a week, and take great care not to make big or quick movements around her. When she gets really defensive and focused on something that's making her nervous, I'll move her around so she focuses on something else. Each handling session I try to make sure of two things; One, that she has as good of an experience as possible and goes into "Curious Mode' before I put her back, and Two, that I always end on a positive note. Be very patient as you put them back into their enclosure, and replace their lid very slowly. If you can have several good, positive experiences a week and always end on a good note, they start to trust you very quickly. Sometimes it only takes two weeks, some hogs take several months. Let me know if you have any more questions! I'm always happy to help ^_^
She is an albino conda and she is gorgeous, but tiny! Thank you so much for breaking it down, this helps tremendously. I’m taking it super slow with her as well - I’m finally able to open the lid and change her water without her getting huffy and puffy. She used to hiss at me for just coming close to her tub so I think that’s progress. I’m going to start the handling sessions soon and make sure to end on a good note. She seems more curious about me now, coming to the edge of the tub instead of running in fear. I just don’t want to ruin her progress by pushing her too far. Thanks again for taking the time to reply and your great advice! Your videos have also been very helpful!
@Mikey-b-OG Aww 😊 Well keep at it. Sounds like you're doing great, and you are most welcome! Please feel free to keep me posted on your progress, too!
How long would you generally wait to feed a baby hog after getting him?
@madmusic0774 I always wait 3-4 days. There are snakes that you can feed right away no problem, but the thing is, you don't know who those snakes are until you take the risk. Shipping can be stressful, moving to a new home/environment with new smells, and a new hairless ape to deal with can be stressful, and typically with any reptile the key to a successful start is leaving them alone.
Your new baby will be just fine a few more days without food, but feed them too soon and you risk regurg, or they get defensive and now they have a negative association with feeding that could make it harder next time. Of course they might be completely fine, and it's up to you what you feel comfortable trying. I err on the side of caution and give my new babies 3-4 days to settle in before I feed. And I've never had a problem that way ^_^ Thanks for asking!
