Ever since I got my western hognose, when I feed him I grab the thawed mice by the rear with forceps and basically put on a puppet show. Honestly, It's more for my benefit than it is for my hognose's, but it seems to have been incredibly effective. He never has been picky, and always pursues the mouse on a super epic, intense wild chase throughout his little feeding bin. I'm not sure if this would work for all hognoses, or if I just happen to have a guy who loves hunting and actually pursuing prey, but he seems to enjoy it and so do I.
Hey ik im a year late but I’m really curious about this specific type of snake I really want one and I would love to get some tips and some advice I guess to keeping a hognose healthy and happy
Love this. I just got my first hognoses not long ago. I fell in love with them and have 4 now and the drama is so real with these funny adorable snakes. I have to shake the mouse just right for one and another doesn't like it if I wiggle it at all. My other two smaller males, I have to place in a deli container with the pinky and cover them up so it's dark or they won't eat at all. I love their quirks!
I have a 4/5 month old male hognose and he’s an amazing eater. He likes to hiss at the food and be all grumpy at first but once he finds out it’s food and not me just coming in there to annoy him then he will gently grab it.
I am 12 yrs old and u inspired me to want a reptile but not now of course but later on in life. And i actually wanted to see this vid... but bummer, it was age restricted but i bet it was good and btw i luv ur videos... very educational and interesting
But some of the feed my pet Friday’s are restricted, and others are not, so I’m confused why one snake eating a rat is different than another snake eating a rat. Maybe they just didn’t like the way the particular snake was eating or something?
My male Western hognose went through a 3 month hunger strike. Seriously tried everything, f/t, live, braining, like 7 different scents, different colored mice, different sizes, combinations of all of the above. Then the little shit just ate when I accidentally thawed one extra mouse. Been eating steadily ever since. His sister is a dream snake
Hey I was wondering how often and how much you feed your hognoses at different ages!:) That would also be a cool video you could do about all the species of snakes you keep bc there’s no clear agreement rly for snake feeding online aside for ball pythons
We used to have an amel cornsnake, there was something wrong with it thoug. We could see something black in its stomach and it wouldn't eat so on the second week we traded it for another amel (I think it's an amel but it's a bit darker than amel should be, maybe an ultramel? I'm not sure) The ultramel eats fine, but I hope that Starburst (the one I gave away) is eating now. I still have Vio and Ember
Hello! I recently got a hognose snake (about 4 months old) and while she’s very friendly, she keeps trying to bite me and my boyfriends hands whenever we hold her. She doesn’t hiss or strike at us so I know it’s not out of fear just her thinking we’re food. She tried biting me when we picked her out and the breeder said it was just because she was hungry so we fed her that day when we brought her home but now two days later we’ve tried holding her again and she’s actually more bitey then before. Any advice on how to teach her that we’re not food? Thanks:)
Hey i got question how do bath a hognose... an also today i feed my hognose today he grab from the side he couldn’t figure out to straighten the mice out it bad that i help him out to Guide it with Tongues
Emily! We have a baby albino hognose.... he’s pretty thin, about 8/9 inches, looking at this baby I think we need to fatten ours up! We already feed him twice a week, but I don’t think he’s as young as we thought in the first place. Any ideas on how to help me figure out how old he is and if he’s under weight? He is not ridged, just long and skinny
+ActiveAnimals formerly animalobsessed1 mice breed quicker so they are cheaper, plus hamsters are much rounder/wider so you have to feed a smaller meal in order for the snake to be able to take it down.
They eat toads in the wild but I have not seen anyone feed them toads in captivity yet. Is it just an issue with the availability of feeder toads? Or is there another factor?
I believe they strictly eat toads in the wild, but don’t quote me in that. Which would be a bit more difficult in captivity unless you’re raising toads, too. It’s better to try to get them eating something other than toads.
My hognose snake is a fucker to feed hes only just eaten after 4 - 5 months of not feeding and i had to leave it in his enclosure for 24 hours for him to finally take it
Bacon be like "Meh, okay, I'll take it... if you insist..."
That last one is such a cute little dummy, trying to eat the plastic. What a kewt stoop-stoop!!!

The baby trying to eat the container made me laugh a lot harder than it should have 😂
Bacon eats like my female hognose. She just opens her mouth and waits for food to fall in. Never seen her strike or wrap food
Vanessa literally my western hognose also 😂😂

Awwww the little baby is so cute and derpy licking the bottom of the container ❤️🐍
He was trying to eat the plastic 😂🤣🤣🤣
Your adults take the mouse So gently. Mine go into a frenzy.
Jeff N Same, I have a ball python that most of the time when I drop the rat in (I feed live) she doesn’t even let it touch the bedding lol
😂 omg ha
Huff-n-Puff reminds me of my blue tongue skink lol
*slam head into plastic and try to eat it* ".....hognose snakes aren't very smart...." lol. yyyeaaahhhh..... lol
she touched it with the mouse and it smells like the food thats why it tried to eat the plastic container lol
Great stuff!
I can't get enough of these snake videos.
Would it be possible to make a video about how to feed a cornsnake?
I love the little nope ropes 😊
I wanna see the other baby hognose snakes, especially the super aniconda
love your vids!!!
4:36 I died😜😂😜😂😜😂😂😂
I am 12 yrs old and u inspired me to want a reptile but not now of course but later on in life. And i actually wanted to see this vid... but bummer, it was age restricted but i bet it was good and btw i luv ur videos... very educational and interesting
Your hognose snakes are so funny lmao 😂
Why is it age restricted? Its just a snake!
Kate Bandy some people may not like the idea of feeding an animal to another...even though the “prey” is already dead, frozen, then thawed...
But some of the feed my pet Friday’s are restricted, and others are not, so I’m confused why one snake eating a rat is different than another snake eating a rat. Maybe they just didn’t like the way the particular snake was eating or something?
@@katebandy3085 youtube Algorithm
It’s most likely due to too many people either complained or disliked the feeding videos that they became demonetized.
How on Earth do they survive in the Wild with those Pathetic "strikes" ?
They wouldn't bless them lol
Bacon.exe stopped working 😂😂
Bacon agrees with my dad! Eating is not a race! lol
That baby hognose is dumb as rocks. I luv himb!
That baby hognose isn't that smart, but it's SO adorable!!
Hognose snakes are my fav snakes
How heavy is your conda female? And do you brumate your hogs before breeding? Love your channel :)

Good job huff a puff
Hey i got question how do bath a hognose... an also today i feed my hognose today he grab from the side he couldn’t figure out to straighten the mice out it bad that i help him out to Guide it with Tongues
carlos rivera Helping the snake a little is okay
How often should I feed a baby hognose? And how many per feeding? Getting mine on Tuesday.
Would you do programs or little visits and trips to New Jersey?
CUTE-!!!!!!!
Do you normally feed them out of the enclosures? I feed mine in their enclosures, but dry the mice very well so no bedding sticks. I love your videos!
That’s a great idea. We’ve been putting the mouse in a baggy to thaw in warm water and then just put it on a piece of paper towel.
You can say that but I think their pretty smart
I think half and puff

You might be better off going on Facebook (if you have it) and messaging her there.
Cool
well. that went well.
Hi
My bet is on the het albino
R u ever going to make hybrid snakes
1130 Well some snakes can make hybrids, but they often have many health issues.
I got scared at 3:15 lol
That was their macaw in the background lol
Do you ever have to assist feed hognoses? I cant seem to get mime to eat no mater what I try
i think bacon!
Huff in puff
Whats different about Conda Hognose to Eastern and Western?
The conda is just the pattern.
Huff and puff
Yes
Where do I buy a hognose snake because I don’t have a clue
What is the reason mice are so much popular as snake food than hamsters? Is there a nutritional advantage, or are mice simply easier/cheaper to breed?
+ActiveAnimals formerly animalobsessed1 mice breed quicker so they are cheaper, plus hamsters are much rounder/wider so you have to feed a smaller meal in order for the snake to be able to take it down.
1:20 think huff and puff will win
dec 8 is my birthday
Happy belated B-Day!
I think half an puff will win
Conda
Maybe hog won't eat she was eatten real well with the breed but now nothing any advice
I have a hognose snake 5months old
Huffin puff
I thought you said hufflepuff when you said huffand puff
Huff and puff will win
Right
Where does she get those baby mice from?
Probably from a supplier. You can buy frozen ones that you thaw as needed for feeding
Huff ans puff lol
They eat toads in the wild but I have not seen anyone feed them toads in captivity yet. Is it just an issue with the availability of feeder toads? Or is there another factor?
Danial McCoy They are hard to get, she would probably have to catch them in the wild because no one breeds them.
Sam George which would then decimate their population.
2nd one
What does it mean for a hognose to be a conda?
It's a genetic mutation that affects their pattern. You can learn all about it in my 'Intro to Genetics Part 1' video if you're interested :)
Snake Discovery Thank you, I was looking for a video explanation but wasn’t sure which video lol doing that now
I thought they only ate frogs.
I believe they strictly eat toads in the wild, but don’t quote me in that. Which would be a bit more difficult in captivity unless you’re raising toads, too. It’s better to try to get them eating something other than toads.
from where i can buy egg eating snake and do u ship around the world?
I was right XD
My hognose snake is a fucker to feed hes only just eaten after 4 - 5 months of not feeding and i had to leave it in his enclosure for 24 hours for him to finally take it
You should do a tuger war
