    That's wonderful! Hopefully she'll continue to recover and thrive with you. You're doing a great job.

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

    Re: My injured snake..

    How often should I try to feed her now? Just once a week or more/less?

    Re: My injured snake..

    If worms, I would suggest twice a week.
    Maybe 3 times since someone has some catching-up to do.
    Love to see a photo.

    Re: My injured snake..

    She looks better I think.. but it's kind of gruesome. She was real scabbed over, on the top of her head and her eye but when she shed, the scabs went with it, now there is just a pit where her eye should be and missing scales, but it looks better than being all scabby.

    Re: My injured snake..

    Okay.. now a new problem. When ever I try to touch her she strikes lol. Does she think I am food? I am pretty sure she is totally blind. She is scarfing down a big worm right now, I am gonna try to touch her again, if she strikes, I will offer her another worm and see if hungry is the problem.

    Re: My injured snake..

    I went back into her tank and she tried to escape me, like she always has, but no biting. So is she just aggressive? Is this normal wild garter snake behavior? Or is she just blind and hungry and thinks my finger is a worm?

    Let her strike as long as she's eating.
