on another note
I know I should be asking Mikhaila's science teacher, since he raises trout
but he raises his to be released somewhere as part of some program
the one time I asked him whether I could have a couple for my snakes, he was rather protective of them (in disbelief I dared to ask)
I do remember though, from my childhood uphill from the area's biggest trout farm, that they start out small
in fact - they may be small enough for even baby garters
so how come they're not available as feeders?
it can't be because they're hard to breed
trout farms have been around for longer than any others except carp ponds perhaps
any ideas on the subject?
