Re: DeKay's Brown Snakes
Has anyone actually managed to get their to eat snails? I've tried a bunch of different sizes, even smashed one open and took all the shell off for him one time when I ran out of slugs and worms and he still wouldn't go for it!

Re: DeKay's Brown Snakes
Within moments of releasing some I observed them eating small black snail. 30 seconds after release they found food.
It made me feel good.Steve

They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

Re: DeKay's Brown Snakes
Did he eat the shell? I heard they have specially hinged jaws to get the snail out.
We tried with our guy and he just kinda fiddled with it for a bit and then gave up.0.2.0 Crested Geckos-Cornelius and Nibbler

Re: DeKay's Brown Snakes
No she spit the shells out.
Actually, they roll the shell off the snail.

Re: DeKay's Brown Snakes
I believe my Dekayi ate snails. My sister gave me a bunch with some slugs and I put them in the house with him. I found empty snail shells later!

Re: DeKay's Brown Snakes
It's pretty cool how they pull the snail out of its shell.
I guess they evict the snail from its home.
A permanent eviction.
