Beautiful color and detail. I once kept a Western or Dusty hognose that was trained to eat pinkie mice which made it much easier to care for. I understood that these are a venemous rear-fanged snake that would have to gnaw on you to get the venom into the blood. The venom works very well on toads, though. Thanks for your very detailed photos. Voted.
