Hi,

In October this year I bought a 9month old garter snake as DNZ. The breeder said it's a male animal, but I'm not sure.

I keep the 70cm long snake in a terrarian 84x80x50 with room-temperature and a 25 Watt UV-lampe . And took it for 6 Weeks in a cold room for winter-sleeping. But it doesn't get normal now.

It bits me everytime I open the doors. But it doesn't eat something. Now it is very thin. It just ate my frogs (Hymenichyrus boettgery) and Guppys as long as they are fresh. It doesn't eat frosted things. No stints, no mouses, nothing. Only one time, in my despair I gave the animal fish from paella, it has eaten the paella.

But my snake doesn't eat thinks with vitamins. The veteran said, the animal is o.k.. I've got the stupids snake in the whole world.Till now I can feed it with guppys, but the frogs are too expensive it has been eaten my whole breeding. And I'm in sorrow about that the animal vitaminsdeficiency and I'm not able to get guppys everytime my snake is hungry.

Please help me, I'm despairing
