I am in the process of purchasing two pair of Ahaetulla prasina. I am planning on keeping the snakes in rubbermaid containers (with ventilation, heat, braches, etc.) together as pairs. My biggest concern is feeding. I don't have a source for anoles or geckos up here in the barren north, so I guess the alternatives would be guppies, assist feeding/force feeding rodents or tube feeding Mazuri carnivorous gel. What do you guys think? Does this species accept fish in captivity? Has anyone had luck feeding these guys anything besides reptiles? Is force feeding a reasonable method? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.



Cheers,

Nick
