They are so cute! Congrats. I wish I didn't have to go through state permitting to have them here. That restriction seems so antiquated with them being captive bred in great numbers.
 
Nice! I have three hog clutches incubating currently. Curious, what day of incubation did they hatch on?
 
Awesome. I'm thinking around day 55ish for mine, also around 81-82 degrees. They're currently on day 38, 37, and 25. :D

Those babies have beautiful reds. Love it and congrats!
 
I raised hognose for several years and mine hatched at 55 days like clockwork at 81-82 degrees. The funny thing was that I hatched 3 or 4 eggs that contained twins, and usually they were het for pink pastels. One egg had a pink pastel and a het but the pink failed to survive. The eggs with twins took longer to hatch by a few days. Although I've raised a variety of colubrids, and a lot of hoggies, I never hatched twins except in the pink pastel line.
 
:D Babies! What morphs are you expecting this year, John? I'm looking to get a pair of hogs maybe this year, and I'm trying to decide what kind of project to invest in, since some mutants are quite high in price. There's a pair of het corals I'm eyeballing for a hell of a good price, but I'm sure they'll be gone before I can reasonably afford to buy them.

Albino are the only morphs, sorry.
Good luck getting your het corals.
