Re: What should I do?

Maybe even less than 2 pinks a week, depending on the size and sex of your snake. You may want to split feedings into twice a week, two big meals and even intervals, or three times a week with a big meal at the beginning and two smaller ones later in the week.

all you have to do is let the garter grab the food and -then- sprinkle the powder onto the back end of it
