S. Ringneck eating tadpoles

candb Oct 16, 2005 06:04 PM

Ive never heard of this but i tried feeding my newborn ringnecks, tadpoles because one wouldnt eat anything, i have two now because i just got another. The ringneck attacked them and thrashed around and ate probaly 6 or 7, there very small tadpoles im gonna try to find bigger ones. Has anyone ever fed there ringnecks tadpoles?

Southern and Northern Ringneck Snakes will both prey on tadpoles and fish. Southern Ringnecks actually go pretty crazy for fish, even specimens caught in areas where there is no sitting water for miles.
