Nice little hog, I really like the yellow tones running down its dorsal!

Any tips on getting a picky CB Western eating it's FT Pink mice vs. just bluff striking at them? Mine is being a pain in my ass... egg yolk dipped pink worth a try?

Jenea-Floridahoggs would probably have some good tips.

One of my first snakes was a Hognose... my very first was a bp....


If only they got bigger... a 6ft hognose would be pretty badass!

Babies are very visually stimulated. Try feeding off of tongs or live. For scenting I have had a lot of luck with the water from a can of tuna or anoles.

Here is a vid of one of the tease techniques I use on my babies.

One more thing, a lot of westerns go off of feed this time of year. As long as its not really loosing weight you may just have to wait it out. They are really bad about self brumating. Pay attention to which side it is hanging out on the most, hot or cold? That will give you a clue.
