His snake is a northwestern, so it wouldn't be too hard.

SLUGS!!!!!

I think he likes slugs......

Each time I put them in there, they're gone in a second...I've never really seen him eat it, but I doubt those slugs can get far in such a short time....

Thanks Katach and everyone else who didn't tell me to let him go.

I know you guys just wanted to save the NW Garter spicies that are decaying....

lol

Anyways, I know u guys just wanted to help


Man..........

I hope im right



I think I am becuz just before I edited this post, I checked on him, and his there wating around where the slugs were.

Slugs can move pretty fast when they want to.
I sure hope your snake ate them.

[katach]

I hope he ate them too!!! That would be great! If he did eat it, you can use a slug to scent other things for him to eat, like pinkies.

[katach]

Try and see if he'll take a slug from a pair of tweezers or tongs, then you'll know for sure he ate it!

Well, Im not sure I have too, since I can tell he's way fatter than he ever was. I put like atleast 5 or 6 of them in there and they're all gone..But I will still try it.

Thanks again

If you feed just slugs you may need to get a vitamin supplement powder. That's why I switched ours over to pinkies. They still get worms and fish as treats, but pinkies are their staple because it's the most nutritionally rounded.

[kibakiba]

Actually, slugs are pretty good vitamin wise. I believe someone told me they're actually high in calcium. That's something I wouldn't have expected. I know if you gutload them with vitamin rich foods, they can be at least a little nutritionally complete.

If he's eating, GREAT!! But better figure that out.
