Clumsy baby

I hope the little guy eats for you soon

I hope (s)he does too.. He's a little joy and I love how tiny he is. Too bad if he does eat he'll get bigger... But hopefully when he does he'll keep his tameness, I love how he just slithers right up into my hand and hangs out with me

You could also try the salmon. My babies love the salmon.

I'll write that down for my mom. She's going grocery shopping tomorrow, she was going to get a little bit of tilapia to see if any of the snakes would like it, but I'll have her pick up a little bit of salmon, too. I think my snakes are spoiled... Here I am going out on a limb to find a bunch of different foods to feed them. I've already got my concinnus eating very small fuzzy bits that were left over and now possibly fish Anything i try feeding tiny the others are sure to try and grab some too.

well I would deff try the guppies thing when you git a chance, my smallest baby, who is a runt for sure will only eat guppies, no fresh caught fish, worm, pinkie parts... nothing... so unfortunatly... I'm stuck there for now. He is growing slowly but the guppies work.

[Mommy2many]

Good luck and just keep trying! I know other members use tilapia but mine have never really taken to that as much as they appear to love the salmon. As a special treat, I will get the sockeye salmon (more expensive and very red in color) but they also like the cheaper one just as well

Maybe try getting a small snail from the fish store. He might surprise you!

I'm getting 10 guppies tomorrow and I'll put a few in a dish and put some pieces of worm, tilapia or salmon to see if he'll eat the guppies and a few pieces of something else Our pet store doesn't hold snails usually. I will buy one if they do have them though.

update?

We weren't able to get guppies today, we forgot our debit card and only had 15 dollars on hand. The place advertised a sale on all fish, reptiles and all feeder supplies like mice guppies and whatever else and when I went to get some guppies she told me in a really snoody voice they weren't on sale and it was 2 dollars per guppy. That seemed absurd so I didn't get any. How much do guppies usually cost? All of their supplies were more expensive than the place I go to, a 20 gallon reptile tank with a sliding screen top was 90 dollars. The same one at the place I go to was 50 dollars rounded up a bit. Their mice were even worse too... 5 dollars for 3 pinkies, 3 dollars at the place I go. And that was a "sale". Anyways, Tiny hasn't taken anything yet but on Monday we'll be going to our usual place to buy a few guppies and some pinks for the adults and my concinnus. I haven't tried the salmon and tilapia yet, I haven't had time. Tomorrow is feeding day so maybe Tiny will find tomorrows menu appetizing... :P Its cut up worms, pinky, salmon and tilapia. Sounds yummy to me!

That pet store sounds like the ones I am forced to use here. The fancy guppies are $2.00 each. You need feeder guppies, if they offer them. They are not the same. Also, our pinkies are 3 for $5.00. Can't get them any cheaper unless I order from a supplier off the internet and then pay extravagant shipping charges. I can get the salmon for maybe $7.00 a pound at the gracery store, or get nightcrawlers at Walmart at 20 for $3.00. Slugs are free in my yard.
