   Peterra liked post by d_virginiana On thread : Feeder Fish without Thiaminase?

   If you do try the f/t silversides, make sure to try ones that the heads haven't broken off of. This sounds bizarre, but I have two snakes that absolutely will not touch a feeder (mouse or fish) if...

   To add onto what Albert said, we have had members in the past who bought safe species of fish from the grocery store to feed and ended up with dead snakes due to a preservative they didn't know was...

   Interesting. I know the problem with silkworms and thiaminase has come up on some frog forums I'm on. I think the majority of the real worries with thiaminase come from the feeding of live rosy...

   Well, I was going to get back into the whole forum scene about five months ago, but shortly after I got on and made my first post Houdini passed away and I couldn't really bring myself to get back on...

   How long did you leave them in together? They're usually a bit nervous about a new snake at first, but that calms down pretty quickly in my experience. After about a ten minute freakout involving...

   Size-wise, I try to make them close enough in size that they would be a pretty even match if a food-fight broke out (of course, this all goes out the window if you put a male and female together to...

   I tried misting Houdini's enclosure once... It was probably the biggest snake panic attack I've ever witnessed. We just rely on the water evaporating from their dishes to keep the humidity at an...

   Just a suggestion... Don't contact a wildlife official about the babies. I think (you might want to look it up to be sure) that it's illegal to own any native reptile species in GA. Since easterns...

   Sounds like my snakes will be getting a lot of chicken heart and liver.

    Would livers or gizzards be okay to feed as well? I'm guessing whatever is good to feed from a turkey would also be okay from a chicken :) Unfortunately I'm thinking whatever I get won't be...

    Mine act crazy if they can smell some of my other animals on me, especially if I've been holding the cats. They also don't really like it if I've been handling a wild snake and they can still smell...

    I really miss Steve Irwin. He was the reason I first became interested in reptiles way back in the day. Now it's difficult to even catch a re-run of his old show. I just miss the way you could...

    Glad he's eating them. Hopefully he'll put on enough weight that you can treat him for parasites then get him to take better food.

    Peterra liked post by d_virginiana On thread : Difficult snakes

    I normally wouldn't recommend this because of thiaminase concerns, but if you have a local baitshop that sells silver-colored minnows (less likely to have thiaminase than rosie-reds at any rate) you...

    Wow, it's usually the other way around; trying to get garters who are used to fish and worms to eat pinkies. We mix the food items up too, but the pinkies were definitely the hardest to get them to...
