Anyone here keep/breed western Hognose snakes?

starting to collect a few nice 2010's right now, Het albino getting FATTY, lost a albino to lack of eatting/regurger
 
I had a few for a while. I really liked them. When your males get older (say 8-9 months from now) be carefull with them. they are rear fanged and mildy venemous (which im sure your well aware of) and i had a yearling male hit my finger and my hand swelled up for 24 hours and has two nice balls of what i imagine as scar tissue under the bite area and when it gets really cold that hand still acts weird (cramps, pains yada yada) where i got bit.

out of the probably 10ish adult hognoses ive ever been tagged by this was the only one that ever got me with anything and ive had plently of fang marks on my hand. Def not trying to scare you from them, but some can be alittle worse than advertized.

Post some pictures of your little guys! They are so cute when they are small!
 
i work at a fish/reptile store, getting bit is part of the game, just avoid the retic;)
well aware of rear fang issue, have been stuck a couple times by lionfish and rabbit fish as well

gotta dig up camera, in midst of ripping up all floors in house and replacing w bamboo
