I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!! Any ideas, please share!! Also, pics of your hognose set ups would be awesome!!!!!
Personally, for my Heterodon nasicus nasicus, I provide a substantial depth of dry coconut fibre, a liberal helping of dry sphagnum moss, and plenty of hiding opportunities in the form of both cork bark and commercially available hides. This setup has generally worked very well for me
