No problem, If my experiences can help another I am glad to share.
Last winter I ultimately wound up watching my male Dekay die of starvation, I did not understand why, the female would eat crawlers and small earthworms from wal mart just fine, but the male refused to eat unless it was a slug. Thankfully though he did manage to impregnate Xena.
Xena my female Dekay Brown has the most beautiful copper color to her, and it carried over to two of her children, I plan to breed her again, and have kept the two copper babies as well.
We raised all the babies to the juvenile stage, and released all but the two copper colored ones. Letting go was hard, spending 2 months feeding them booger sized slugs off the tip of a toothpick, and then setting them free, it was tough.
It is so cool that someone else besides me appreciates the little snakes too!
