We have what we believe is a 3-4 year old Western Hognose male, and we’re just wondering what specific Morph he might be!
Looks like a normal/wild phase western hog to me.
He is a great looking guy!
That’s what we thought! The person we got him from said he was anaconda, but either he’s het or i have my doubts lol
either way, we love em!
Thank you! The sweetest hognose i’ve ever come across too
Anaconda is a dominant mutation, meaning there is no such thing as a “het” Anaconda. Could you post a photo of the belly? I doubt based on the amount of patterning that you’ve got a conda, but the belly will confirm.
Huh, I didn’t actually know that. This is the first hognose we’ve had and I don’t know a lot about their genetics honestly!
He’s burrowed somewhere in his enclosure, but he’s got the black belly with yellow spotting
I would call this boy a normal.
With the yellow on the belly, along with his patterning, I concur with everyone else’s assessment that you’ve got a normal. With the condas, you get a more reduced pattern and they tend to have mostly/all black bellies (though not all the time).
