hello everyone,
ive got a few questions to ask,
over the last few months ive become the new adoptive mum of a garter snake, his previous owner wasnt too interested in him and forgot about him, so i became its carer.
he is average 80cms long, and appears to be in good condtion. at the moment he is housed in a small tank 46cm lengthX 30cmwidth X 17 high with a heat pad. i know its too small and i would like to upgrade to a better housing for him, what size should i go for? ive seen tall tanks in the local shop (exo terra brand ) would that be ok?
in addtion within the last few weeks he has become less active and preferres to hide under his bedding. could he be hibernating?
also ive tried to feed him on other food stuffs than goldfish but he refuses to take any interest, i use a supplement for his water at the moment.
sorry for the questions, this is very new to me!!
