Scott they are going to want snakes. The majority of hatchling eastern milks prefer snakes and small skinks.

You can scent small pinks or mouse tails with lizards.

They'd probably take ground skinks without hesitating, as well as five lined skinks. Don't you live in PA? I'm in PA and right now I could find easily a couple dozen neonate snakes a day. That's why I have so many snake eaters.

Yes I do live PA. I only find adult snakes and once in a while I will find a brown snake. Skinks are very rare in my area. And 2 of my baby eastern milks died. I forced the rest of them some food that I mix with water, they took it very well. Thanks Scott

They aren't going to take very well to that. You need to make some rational choices about you keeping snakes you cannot provide food for.
