Hi everyone,

Where in the UK could I find one of these animals? I'm having trouble finding a supplier.

Thanks,

R.

I'm in Nottingham. Do you know when the next expos are? I haven't been to one yet and am not that aware of them.

Thanks for the reply.

The next one is on Sunday 26th September at Doncaster Dome. I think the entry fee is about a fiver, and although I've not been to one yet I've heard that there are usually hoggies on sale.
There is a reptile shop in York which I got my hognose from, but that might be a bit far for you - depends how much you want one!

Haha I want one enough to consider it!

It would be a pretty long drive, but what a good reason to do it :D

How would I reserve one?

I really want one of these critters but I'm finding it really difficult to track them down in the UK.

Try Masons Exotics. They're located in Mansfield and keep hoggys. Look them up, I'm sure they'll be able to help. Good luck with your hoggy hunt. :)

Sounds like Mansfield might be the way forward! Let us know if you find one, and don't forget to post some pics when you get your purchase home...

I will check them out, thanks very much for the help everyone.

I have also found exotic-pets.co.uk stock them, but they are a totally online company, does anyone have any experience with them?

Thanks again,

R.

I have hognose hatchlings for sale near Swadlincote, Tails and Scales in Wigston Leics have them, Aquatic Warehouse Swadlincote also have them for sale.

There are also a few folks advertising them on another forum.

Thanks for the help everyone, I appreciate it very much.
