I have fed "Canadian night crawlers" from Wal mart with no problems.

Buy a fillet of frozen Tilapia from the fish section at the grocery store and cut it up...

Garter snakes usually love chopped up fish, and this will be the first step to pinkie training.

after a few weeks of feeding the chopped fish, rub fish all over a pinkie so it smells like the fish and offer the pinkie.

99 percent of the time, that's all it takes, and you will have pink eaters.

The attached photos show some of my garter snakes chomping on some fish
