Need help with wildcaught Hognose
I found this beautiful snake in the jaws of my little brother's cat, thought it was dead. It looked like a copperhead, and it didn't look like it was doing very well.
I put it in a cage carefully and came back to find it perfectly fine. It saw me and did its playing dead routine.
This snake is so pretty, it's more vibrant than a copperhead I saw out here.
I plan to give it to a friend who is a wildlife rehabber/educator, but he lives a bit away and I don't have money to ship it.
Little snake here must be getting hungry, but he wouldn't even eat a pinky. He looks barely big enough for a pinky.
Basically, what can I feed him? He told me it ate frogs and toads, but I don't know where to get them small enough for him. I live in East Texas on a piece of land with woods, running water and still water in it. What's the best time/place to go catch small frogs/toads? Best method?
