Posted by: Raven01 at Thu May 22 10:21:21 2003 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by Raven01 ] Just as an fyi, the little fellow ate two nice fat earthworms that I found last night. I'll probably pick up some minnows in the next day or so and try those. I've decided to keep the little gem for a while at least and see how it does. If it seems terribly anxious to escape, then I'll let it go. So... I've got down that I should feed around twice weekly. How much should I feed per meal? I generally keep any non-breeding animals on a leaner feeding schedule to prevent obesity - something many boas & pythons are prone to. My corns are fed much more frequently because of the higher metabolism, but not so much so that my one adult become chunky or that it slows the growth on my yearlings. What should I expect from the garters in regards to metabolism? And yes, I ask lots of questions... I just want my critters to be both healthy & happy. | ||
