Live Feeders online?
As my name suggests, I'm a fan of garter snakes. The biggest problem that I currently have is finding food for them. Most of my garters and my female nerodia refuse to eat anything but live fish. They are all between 1 and 3 years old, and only one of them has ever successfully eaten frozen.
So- beyond trying to get them to eat something else, I'm currently looking for a website where I can buy live feeder fish, feeder frogs, or tadpoles for fairly cheap. All I can find for fish are frozen or bulk, or waaaaay too much per (when you have 4 garters and a nerodia, plus babies on the way, 4 bucks a pop, twice a week for food gets to be too much.)
Anyone have any sites that they have used with success? Since I live in Arizona, bait shops are few and VERY far between (2 hour drive to the closest one to me that has live minnows), so I'm looking for other options.
