Hello! I found a little scarlet snake last night. I'll be releasing it tonight, so it can be happy and grow, but I just want to make sure it'll be okay til then. I caught a tiny cricket last night and two tiny beetles for it in case it got hungry, which all seem to be gone and it has a big Gatorade cap of water, which I've seen it drinking from. Its hiding under a pile of leaves I put in there and its outside in the shade. I just wanna make sure it'll be okay and that I've given it everything it might need. There's two crickets in there now from the ace hardware store but I think they're too big. Should I remove them or cut them in half? Any help/advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
