Re: Please Help, lawnmower injury
My thoughts exactly, makes me crazy to hear these things... but then we see it every day. We get in so many horses that have been allowed to starve down to nothing... I'll never understand why people don't just give them away when they can no longer care for the animal. You're awesome, James, for helpng that fella.
On a brighter note, I held a hognose today too and was totally taken with him... he kept trying to burrow into my hand!! |

Lori
I highly recommend the hognose Jeff's always been just tolerant of our herp proliferation the hognose changed all that he loves him he even takes him out and let's him burrow in his armpit (ugh) and he never questions the acquisition of new pets any more (as long as they're not furry) get the hognose - really

the worst pain ours causes us is when he uses that bony nose shovel to try to burrow in body parts (armpits and ellbow crooks) I think 2' lengthis max for females - a 20G long tank is ample for an adult to stretch out in from what I understand the reactions to bites only occur when people permit the snake to chew on them for several minutes
