Arctic Lavender Het Coral

This listing is for a young male Western Hognose snake (Heterodon nasicus), hatched on July 1, 2025 and currently weighing 24 grams. The animal is described as self-produced by the seller, Purple Turtle Technologies LLC, a verified seller on ReptileAds, and the exact animal pictured is the one being offered across six photos.

Genetically, this hognose is listed as Arctic Lavender, het Albino. The Arctic trait is incomplete dominant, Lavender is recessive, and the animal also carries a recessive het Albino gene, meaning it is not visually albino but can pass that trait on if bred appropriately in the future. No additional seller commentary on appearance or temperament was provided beyond these genetics.

This baby is currently feeding on live rats, according to the seller. It is not listed as a proven breeder, which is expected given its young age and baby maturity status, and it is not being offered as a pet-only animal or as a trade.

The snake is priced at $750 USD and located in Melissa, Texas. The seller offers local pickup only, with no shipping options currently listed, so buyers outside the immediate area would need to arrange their own transport. Accepted payment methods include credit card and Cash App.

Prospective buyers may want to confirm feeding history and consistency beyond the single feeding detail provided, the snake's current temperament and handling experience, whether local pickup logistics work for their location, and any additional health or care details directly with the seller before finalizing a purchase.
