Garter snakes, water snakes and ribbon snakes all love salmon.

I know it's kinda off topic... But there are fish eaters out there... and in my snake room, living room and yard.

Re: Finally!!

You dont want to be feeding your GTP every seven days or it will get fat, every fourteen days is perfectly adequate. As you know they barely moveso dont need much energy.

Yeah u r right! I ve noticed that my GTP doesn't even move at night he stays in the same spot every day sometimes he moves a little bit just to drink water on his coil.. Sometimes I get worried wondering if he's still alive or not lol

Re: Finally!!

how are you feeding him? are you just putting the pinky in front of the snake or are you pissing it off? for the first few time i would feed him live so he will get use to eating then move to F/t you if he dose not want to eat the f/t wait another week, when he is hungry he will eat. i like to put the rats head under hot water for a min before feeding my GTP.
