I got a Striped Keelback and I know they eat a ton of fish, so do I just buy it frozen and cut it into strips?

when you go to the store, you can get fresh cuts of the fish, & bring them home & cut them in strips.

I do recommend frozen/thawed fish, because even the stuff for human consumption has parasites
not that freezing eliminates all parasites, but it does kill some stuff

Salmon or Tilapia. Avoid "Products of China" I used Salmon from Sam's Club.
It's a product of Chile and has never given me or my snakes a problem.

yeppers, you can buy it frozen or fresh, but I would freeze it to reduce the risk of parasites. Salmon, tilapia, trout, all good ones, and with one snake you won't need much!!! Mine were always a fan of trout the most.
