So I had this wild idea today.
I "gutload" my feeder insects for my Gecko's, why not "feed up" my worms for my Garters?
The more nutrition in my feeders the better for my snakes right? Well here is what I did:
1 doz Nightcrawlers from my local pet store. (Local Organic Worms)
I then took the "stuff" from their cup and added some mulch from our garden (organic) some Flukers High Calcium Cricket food, and grated 1/2 a carrot and added it in, mixed it all up, added some distilled water till it was nice and moist and re-installed the worms. So now I KNOW they are eating a highly nutritious diet, witch in turn will mean more nutritious food for my snakes!
Just thought I would offer this up as an idea, and ask what you all think?
Be safe!
