ive had a local wild one for about ayear now and i can only get him to eat worms and salamanders ,considering its winter and its nearly impossibly to find worms and i need other foods for him since worms shouldnt b the only thing hes eating . its hard to get frogs and small toads as feeders and its winter so ic ant just go out n find some . i tried feeder goldfish i used to feed to my old water snakes and they wont take em, today i got some rosy reds(minnows) and theyw otn take em eather , theyl eagerly take worms or a salamder from tongs but no lukc with minnows ive even tried feedin em fish from tongs too the way they usualy feed and they wont eat them, ive also tried pinkies today and last week , they still wont take one of them, once again i tried evry wayy of feeding em , brown bag, from tongs and just laying the mouse in its cage and leaving it .
im sure evryone has had a problem like this,
any help ?anything besides worms is good enough for me , im just trying to get them to eat anything besides worms.

these are the only type of minnows or fish i can find around here too
any other food alternatives, scent techniques?

anything would be helpful
