    Re: How often do you feed a scrub?

    Very young snakes could be fed small meals every day. Stuffing them isn't advised and some young(neonates) can die from over eating. Otherwise, adults can be fed twice to 3 times a week. They have very high metabolisms so food doesn't stay long. Foods like worms and fish travel more quickly then pinkies.
    Just my opinion.

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

    Well I had no trouble yesterday feeding a small amount of silversides via stats. Today they want nothin. They are just so tiny and fast it looks as if they should eat.
