I just got my first 2 hognose snakes and the person I got them from told me that they are about 2 years old but they are tiny she says that she has been feeding them once a week and she never had feeding problems I was wondering if any1 could tell me how much 2 feed these guys and wat there growth rate is will they ever get full sized

I have 3 month old holdbacks larger than that. Feed a pinkie every 3 or 4 days for optimal growth.

Sorry, those cant be 2 years old, theyre so small!!!

By the look of them they could only take one pinkie at a feed. I feed my hoggie every 3-7 days, varying it quite a lot as these wee guys will eat quite frequently in the wild and have a reasonably quick metabolism.

Hope this helps
