Re: Food Source

Hello and welcome to the forum. How strange about your garter not wanting worms, of all things. They're almost always taken by garter snakes. Do you know what type of garter you have, or can you post a picture of it? That might help to tailor the answer to your particular type of snake. In the mean time, make sure that the temperature of Suzy's pen is in the 70s or warmer (preferably in the 80s), and make sure Suzy has plenty of places to hide. If snakes aren't comfortable in their enclosure, they will often refuse food or will be reluctant to take it in front of people. If this is the case, you might have to put the worm, fish, or whatever in the pen and leave for about 1/2 hour. Best wishes,
Rick
