This little dude has become a fantastic addition to the Dorfer family of snakes!
I can't get him to hiss or puff up anymore.

Lol, he has been assimilated... Glad he's all settled in and a regular feeder now. I was playing with a couple at the show and they are pretty cute when they get all bad... Napolean complex all the way... :grin01:
 
Hes adoreable and so glad hes eating right for you. I am so sick of Hogweina's huffing and puffing... I just don't have the patience for hoggies anymore LOL
 
Cute little fella! Hoggies have really grown on me in the past few months, but the venomous thing freaks me out a tad, even tho I know it's not harmful to most people. :eek1:

They're only venomous if they chew on you though, right??

They have rear fangs for puncturing toads when they puff up.
It would have to be a feeding response type bite for them to sink into you.
Although it is rare, I have seen some swollen hands from their bite.
My little guy is without aggression and knows when I'm feeding him, of course this is just my take.
