western hognose and fatty liver disease

I've always been a hognose enthusiast since I was a young kid. Recently I purchased a pair of yearling western hognose. I’ve been told and read conflicting information about fatty liver disease. I know this condition can happen in Southern, Eastern, and South American hognose snakes when they were feed a strict diet of rodents. Does this condition also affect western hognose? I was curious if any people who had raised hognose before knew any solid information about this disease.
