My little Brown Snake (Storeria dekayi)

[Holly]

I feed mine every 2 days, though he will beg for food every time he sees me. It took him a week after we found him until he would eat. I use large bottle caps, like the ones from Arizona iced tea and Gatorade. It holds the worm or slug long enough for Noodle to realize they are in there.

I have many, many radixes that give me that "feed me" face but Dekayis have it down to a science. I think they have some mind controlling powers.
When I see that little face looking at me I can't help but stop what I'm doing and feed the little starving scrub.

Thanks for the info!

I managed to snap some better pictures of Ralph today. Hope you all enjoy them:

Mine has been giving me that face a lot lately, and it worries me because now i worry that I don't feed her enough.

what is the appropriate amount of feedings when it comes to a brown snake?
My friend told me most snakes get fed once or twice a week, but is that the same for dekayis?

I just glanced over and he's doing it right now!
