I live in the Portland area of Oregon. I have read that northwesterns eat slugs and there are certainly a lot out in the backyard. Is it safe to feed them to my wild caught babies? They can be picky early on and I worry about them not getting enough nutrition from just earthworms as I work on trying to get them onto pinkies, but Cuddles once had issues with the slime. I think he would have died if we hadn't interveined. Are there slugs in my area that are not safe? Are any safe at all? Creek is on pinkies but I do have a baby that is very picky about food.
