Western Hognose snakes are mildly rear-fanged venomous as a hunting adaptation. If a person is bitten, this can act similarly to a bee sting, with some people being more prone to a reaction (swelling and itching) than others. That being said, this species do not tend to bite unless provoked and feeling threatened, and are more likely to give a warning heat butt.

Adult females should be housed in 3ft long enclosures as a minimum size. Babies can be housed in smaller hatchling snake kits until this is outgrown.
Thermostatically controlled and guarded overhead heating or a heat mat should be provided. Temperatures should be measured with a digital thermometer or heat gun.
