Hi, all, I have some questions on the safety of certain food items for watersnakes. I have been doing some reading up watersnakes and there were a couple warnings about feeding worms and amphibians to the snakes because they may harbor parasites, so I was wondering where the best places to pick these items up where there would be a low chance of parasitism? Is a bait shop a good choice? Also I am wondering what would be a good water snake to start out with, I am also curious on the availability of Nerodia Floridana? Is Nerodia Floridana a good choice? Thanks so much for everything and take care. Best of luck!
Sincerely,
Dave
