New Scrub

[ProXimuS]

I think generally for small ones people try the very small feeder guppies and cut up earthworms/nightcrawlers. Something people also try is putting the snake in a small container with water and some small feeder guppies. Leave them for a little while, and alot of times it seems to work(from what I have read on here) There is a video by Steve floating aroudn somewhere. I'll try and find it.

Here it is. Just an idea, at least if she doesn't eat soon.

She won't eat until she relatively feels safe, give her time to settle in to her new surroundings and keep the handling to a minimum.

Yea, didn't think to mention that. Since she is new WC she might not eat for a little bit. Might need to settle in for a while.

they're so cute

I am gonna try that with the baby. See if she will eat that way.

Good news. I am keeping the baby girl. I found another small one at the park so I am gonna re-home that one. It is the same size as the one I am keeping. A lot lighter in the face though.

The fish store near me is getting feeder guppies on friday. So I am gonna try the cup feeding thing then.

The other baby was taken to her new home last night. The guy is really cool and has delt with snakes before, but mostly pythons and boas. So we talked about garter care for a while. She seemed at ease with him, which i took to be a good sign. I told him that if she didn't start eating or got too hard to handle or anything like that I would get him an older, calmer one.

I am gonna try nightcrawlers with my new baby. See if that gets her eating.
