Honestly I have to say that trout mixture is not the perfect food !!!!!
I know that this recipe is good at some point and it not!!!!
I was the first to say that it was the best food for your garter and I post it over and over again .I will tell you what happen to me and what is my conclusion.
I know few master In the garter snake world that fed exclusively their snake with it and I have to say that they don't have such problem as me or at least at different degree.I don't know if its just me or whatever but together we will put the finger on the problem and I hope to find answers.
A wc adult garter snake fed mainly with trout jellow will look healthy ,top shape and everything will make you feel safe with this home made food .
If you don't see any problem that don't mean that their is no problem at all you know what I mean???
for exemple 3 years ago I caught a gravid female in early May ,until she gave birth in mid august I was feeding her mainly with jellow and worms .
She had lot of babies and i only kept two of them then just one female ,Its not easy to see if i had a problem in general or if it was just this one snake.
Somewhere else on the forum I told you all that I though it was some kind of neurological problem and was wrong this was the first sign of incoming problems.The snake had locomotion disorder and did spiral downward instead of swimming....
MY dark flame eastern that give birth this year was fed with jellow and worms and few toads and frogs .Too much Jellow for sure because all my babies all of them have locomotion problem at different degree.
I release most of them I only keep few pairs and at first its look irreversible .The fruit of my labor is totally scrapp!!!
I don't know what to do with them And honestly every time I see them crawling like I barely control my self its hard to face the fact!!!
I just came back from my earth worms paradise and catch worms for all winter long I have few frogs in the fridge ,I think I will be fine in January when I will take them out from hibernation.Jellow will take only a small part of the food...I hope you all understand and Forgive me if you have the same problem because you did my recipe!!!
I need to have more reflection and if someone had the same bad experience .
Its not that easy because too much of something or not enough like vitamins will show you the same anomalies ,so its easy to worsting it or take another bad step.
I will make my jellow only with trout and Vitamin B1 because My friends told me tilapia worsting the problems and its true and curious thing male seems to be more affected than female...I will had infos later im tired now .
