hogs can be hissy same as every other reptile mostly just bluff.

My hoggy hisses sometimes, usually when he is feeling scared or nervous. I've been told a good tip is to only approach him from behind so my movement doesn't scare him. Still makes me jump I am hoping I will get used to it :/

I've had my male hoggy for 4 years and he still goes through hissy phases every so often. I don't think it really means anything and I've just got used to it now, but it did make me jump the first few times he did it. I think he mostly does it when I startle him, and I always pick him up straight away, which makes him calm down. Hoggies are just funny like that :)
