Western Hognose would do best in a 36x24x18 (or bigger) enclosure with a terrestrial set up! They will explore and climb branches and cork hollows during the daytime occasionally. Being a diurnal species, Hognose Snakes will utilize low percentage UVB if offered to them. We also encourage sparse  foliage to be in the enclosure as they come from open wooded and sandy grassland areas.

Note: Actual available animal may vary from photo. Remember to be aware of your local pet bylaws.
