Hognose are great, mine hisses and hoods up when I open his viv to get him out but as you say it's all a big show,he's got small snake syndrome lol once you pick them up they calm right down :)

Mine only did the show for the first few weeks, then he got so used to us he doesn't do the show anymore even when we pick him up in mid shed.

They're still super duper awesome.

I do love the aggression of mine. Great to show off to people when they come round. He really does stink though

You no,not all of them do fake aggression,some will bite etc.Some never stop the hooding or hissing etc,which can put new owners off.

My female is food crazy,she can't be handled at all really.So you can get bad ones per say,Like everything.
