Hogalicious is a mother-and-daughters western hognose program in Spring, Texas, hatching around 300 babies a year. Every baby is well established on frozen-thawed mice before it's listed, and nothing is marked sold until it lands safe with you and you're happy.
Facebook subscribers and our waitlist always see new babies first.
Tell us the morph you're hunting and we'll reach out when one hatches.
Fill out the formYou get a copy of the lineage for every baby, so a het is known. We also shed test with RGI as available.
Stack the recessives and you get some of the prettiest hogs out there. A few we make:
We're Cali, Avery, and Bria. What started as a mom-and-daughters passion project is now a genetics-focused program hatching around 300 babies a year, and our snakes grow up in a kid-involved home, so they're used to gentle handling from day one.
Every baby is well established on frozen-thawed mice before it's listed, not after a couple of lucky meals.
We handle and assess every hatchling, and your listing tells you honestly what to expect.
Clean pairings, a copy of the lineage with every baby, and RGI shed testing as available.
We don't close a sale until your hog has arrived and settled in. Live arrival is guaranteed, and MorphMarket purchases come with Premium Buyer Protection up to $3,000.
Our babies are only handled with gloves, and they get their own feeding tools and water dishes. Anything not hatched here is fully quarantined and kept separate.
Questions about setup, feeding, or genetics? Ask anytime. Lots of our buyers still check in.
A small program focused on Pine Island lineage and white expression. Two pairs, and only a handful of babies a year.
Meet the geckos
Spreadsheets couldn't keep up with 300 babies a year, so we built the app that could. Every feeding, shed, weight, and clutch here is logged in KeeperOS, and the In the Oven page on this site comes straight from it.
Care guides, morph genetics, the Academy, and HogKnows AI. Everything a new or seasoned keeper needs, for any hognose, not just ours.
Our Facebook subscribers see every new baby before it's posted anywhere else. You also get hatch-day photos, clutch updates, and the behind-the-scenes stuff that doesn't make the main feed.

“I had such a good experience that I will never buy a Hognose snake from any other breeder. Ever. Incredible communication from beginning to end, and Cali went out of her way to update me, send pictures, and also helped me completely redo my setup for my snakes. Also, the snake I purchased was totally fine with being handled for a few minutes before I put her in her enclosure. She is super friendly, no hissing and no playing dead so she is obviously well socialized. I honestly can’t say enough good things about this breeder, she deserves a 10/5 for exceeding expectations. If you want a socialized, well started Hognose I would highly recommend Hogalicious.”
“Working with Cali has been an absolute BREEZE. She’s so sweet and answered my abundance of questions timely and provided lots of feedback and suggestions for this new snake mama. She communicated during shipping and wanted to know when he made it home, showing how much she genuinely cares about the babies she sends out. And my hoggie is GORGEOUS, making it even more of a win! Thank you for making this experience easy and exciting!”
