Re: First Snake - Wild Caught

Well, since it seems to have eaten one worm, should I toss in a second (or even third if it comes to that)? There's no visible bulging or plumping in the snake. I like to think the snake ate it, but it's possible that by some miracle, the worm escaped where the snake couldn't.

And, if kept and cared for, about how big should I expect it to get? And, can I expect it to be calm enough to sit around the house and just hold it? I'm allergic to my cat, so while I enjoy lounging with her, I tend to pay for it, later. And the hamster isn't really the calmest critter in the house. As for the fish... well, yeah.

I understand each snake is individual in it's personality, but a general, on-average answer is good enough for me.

Once I figure out how to really use my camera, I'll come up with some more pics.

PS: Connection went down right as I was about to post this, so I decided to take a little walk down the trail. No snakes, and really not much wildlife to be seen, except for the abundant flying bugs. Checking likely snake-hides, I did, however, pick up a nice appropriately sized slug. We'll see how he does with that.
