Yeah, that's the photo.. i got a online translator to help with the chicken but not what the white stuff was... thanks.. Do you feed raw or cooked chicken?? and is it hearts or liver or just breast meat??

[Thamnophis]

It is chicken heart. Is sold as catfood. And I feed it raw.

[abcat1993]

Cat food? Over here all we have is canned tuna and other crap. Occasionally on Thanksgiving (an American Holiday) we'll give the dogs some insides from the turkey.

[Thamnophis]

Canned catfood is also the main food for those animals.
But some people like to give chickenhearts. Sometimes also available is chickenstomach and chickenliver. The stomach is also easily eaten by the garters. The liver is not that popular.

[abcat1993]

Huh, I'll look for it next time I go to the grocery store.

I think heart is the best, as it keeps some shape when cut into small strips. Liver is inclined to disintergrate.

Just as a random comment, I tried giving my female strips of beef yesterday. Took it unscented after about 5 seconds of hesitation.

[adamanteus]

Do you mean beef flesh or beef heart, Stefan?

[Stefan-A]

Flesh. I'm not going to start using it as a part of their diet, but it's good to know that at least one of them will eat it.

[adamanteus]

It shows that people are right about Garters being opportunist!
