The only real thing to know is that sometimes hoggies just decide to stop eating for a while, just to be annoying.
I don't actually have any pics of my fauns at all, but I have about an inch deep of aubiose, water bowl, small plastic plant and a couple loo roll tubes as hides that don't get used.

They're quite easy to care for if you already have experience with your corn snake - hoggies just need to be kept 1 or 2 F warmer, and as Kehhlyr says, they can be awkward feeders. Apart from that, they just need plenty of places to hide and a nice deep substrate, as they love to dig. |

Hogs are kept more or less the same as corns, just a lil bit warmer and as above, slightly deeper substrate, as for feeding females tend to be better and never refuse a feed but males can be a bit fussy but it's nothing to worry about, as long as you offer food they will take it when they ate ready! In my opinion hogs are a much more rewarding snake to keep |
