Walter was surrendered in November 2025, after his previous owners health deteriorated and could no longer care for him. He is a 5 year old Western Hognose snake.
Walter has no health concerns and behaves as a typical huffy hognose. He will “cobra” and huff if he is not in the mood for handling, but can be handled happily once settled.
