Willow my young hog have never hissed before, had her now about 2mnths, done same as I do every night take lid off faun put my hand in to change water and general spot check and bang she hissed and head but my hand, ijumped out of my skin .but she done it three times.she's not due a shed or nothing.
I've had my male hoggy for 4 years and he still goes through hissy phases every so often. I don't think it really means anything and I've just got used to it now, but it did make me jump the first few times he did it. I think he mostly does it when I startle him, and I always pick him up straight away, which makes him calm down. Hoggies are just funny like that :)

My hoggy hisses sometimes, usually when he is feeling scared or nervous. I've been told a good tip is to only approach him from behind so my movement doesn't scare him. Still makes me jump I am hoping I will get used to it :/
