Baby albino checkered garter.

well he just ate finally!!! pinky parts, I guess whoever bred him trained him to eat chopped up pieces of pinky now he still won't eat worms, is this a concern if he's on an all mice diet?

That question is be greatly debated between garter keepers. My opinion is if you give them fish or worms on a regular basis or every now and then they should be fine.

Cut-up some worms and stir them into the pinky mix. He'll never know the difference. You can then reduce the amount of pinky(slowly) and he'll get used to the taste and smell of worms and he should take them as a normal food. Just a little taste conditioning.
Just don't tell him you're doing it.

Quite a few people feed mice exclusively. The biggest concern I have heard is that pinkies are more fatty than their natural diet of fish and worms. One of mine won't touch worms, but he will occasionally take live fish, so fish & mice it is.... mostly mice. While I agree a varied diet is probably optimal many live long healthy lives on mice alone.

You've got it all wrong. We don't train them, they train us.
I hope my radixes find me to be a good pet
