I recently learned that wormsnakes are full of parasites. So I have one that is frozen and use only a small piece of skin on the pinky. I have never used a ringneck for food and don't know if they contain parasites. Their food is primarily salamanders but salamanders probably have parasites. In the wild the snakes may handle the parasites better.Maybe someone who knows could talk about this.This feeding issue is a problem with all of the smaller milks as their babies need and want lizards or snakes.
I would love someday to look for reds in Kansas. They have to be easier to find than temporalis. There's no such thing as a rock to look under on the coastal plain and the coastal milk habitat gets smaller every year.
