He's got a beautifully busy pattern and a great personality to match. For those exploring the leucistic gene, since the pairing was het to het it's not guaranteed it was passed to him, but you've got good odds under the circumstances. Check my social media to see his lucy siblings and the unique super arctic produced by his parents!

***IMPORTANT SHIPPING INFORMATION***
I ship to (most) of the continental U.S. Mon - Wed via FedEx overnight express to the nearest shipping hub. Please note FedEx requires photo ID to pick up your animal. I do not export at this time. I can also arrange for local pickup in the Tampa Bay area.
I do not ship plains hognoses to Colorado, as it is illegal to own them there without a license. If you have questions about the process, I suggest speaking with a local, Teresa from Hip Hogs.
I do not ship plains hognoses to Iowa without proof of a scientific or educational permit. It is illegal to own them in that state as they are listed as endangered in Iowa.
I do not ship plains hognoses to Illinois without proof of a permit. You must have a (free) permit to own them in the state of Illinois. You can select a hobbyist permit here but please note that you may not breed plains hognose snakes in the state unless you are a zoo or educational program!
