its been over a week, they come out when I present the cut up fish, (I use tilapia fillet, they usually go nuts for it) but they look at it and turn away. and then I have to throw it out after it...

huh, odd they were advertised as eastern. I'll see about setting something like that up when I am able.

Not sure why that is, hang on, let me try a link to my facebook, I posted it there.

15107 Here is a pic of my snakes, I put them in there so I could interact with them without them being able to escape. the stuff at the bottom is bark residue, we use that to transport firewood...

Eastern ribbon snake, I wanted the indigenous variant and those are what live around here, I even saw a few outside when I was a kid. They were captive bred as far as I know.

They have two wooden...

I've had them for over a year and they've yet to get used to being around me, they eat, but they spend all of their time hiding and I usually have to put their food right next to their hide for them...

my gravid females gave birth, and due to an inability to find enough worms I had to let them go back into the yard. However I want to try and raise the babies at least until they are big enough to...

good to know, I suppose I could always try smashing the snails open and cutting them up, its gross but they are the most reliable find in my yard.

Would it be possible to feed them ground chicken? Or clams? I figure they are the closest analog to amphibians and slugs that I am able to buy. It would certainly make things much easier.

Ok it rained and I have a **** ton of snails, but my gravid female just gave birth and now I have babies to feed, is there anyone on this site that has experience with dekayi's that I could talk to?...

whenever I put snails in the tank they clime to the top and hang out between the lid and the edge of the tank. the snakes can't reach them there. I tried putting Vaseline on the top but it had no...

So I've had about 4-5ish brown snakes in my terrarium for over a month now. and for a while they seemed fine, occasionally I'd catch them eating the earth worms I've been giving them. and I always...

I have tried, first 3 times they died in the mail, the one I got last week at least had living springtails, but since adding it to the tank I haven't noticed them, or the isopods that came with them....

Ok I transplanted the herbs to a new pot and replaced them with an ivy and a generic flower this morning and my snakes are already poking out of their hides and sniffing around. So I think that did...

So I set up a terrarium a while back, which hosts two ribbon snakes, and 4 brown snakes, (its rather large) and they've all been eating and exhibiting what I assume is normal snake behavior. spending...

I think I was over watering it, the bulb is in a desk lamp a foot away from the left side of the terrarium. The growth medium is miracle grow potting soil. There is a mesh at the bottom with a layer...

My plan on acquiring a garter snake fell through due to them being sold out from every website I could find. So I grabbed the first dekayi I found while doing my normal springtime yard cleaning. He's...

Its for a northern garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis

This is the tank as is, note I just got it and haven't had the opportunity to clean it yet.
