I caught and decidied to keep wut i think is a scarlet snake about 3 weeks ago. I had snakes durring my entire childhood so i have experience with them but i never had a snake this small, i have always had rat snakes and racers. I think i was succesful in getting her to drink some egg and water. She hasnt shed yet but she looks kindof leathery. i have been sitting her in a warm bath about a 1/4" deep but she doesnt seem to like water. She is only 6" if that so im guessing she is probably less than 6 weeks old. Anything i need to know about these snakes beside how much of a pain they are to feed?
