baby blackneck??

cochran Nov 01, 2011 06:09 PM

This past spring I bred my blacknecked pr. and was of course expecting babies this fall.Well, turns out the female dropped 2 stillborns(full term)one barely alive baby and several duds!The baby that was living died shortly after I found it!With that all done I figured it was all over and I'd try again this coming spring!Was changing the females water a couple of days ago and guess what?? More duds,1 stillborn and 1 very much alive baby!!This was completely unexpected.Now to get it to eat,I've tried unscented pinky,small slivers of minnow and I now have a small earthworm with it! Any suggestions will be appreciated! Jeff

I got mine eating by scenting f/t pinks with toads and they all took. Or you could feed f/t baby toads or toad/frog parts.
