ohhh so mine wont change much?

[kibakiba]

Probably not, more experienced members could tell you more probably, but in my own experience, they don't. Mama's also gone from black to very dark brown with black spots.

[Ringosmama]

ohhh cool!!! i hope he grows and everything goes right!

[kibakiba]

As long as you feed him, give him clean water every day and give him lots of love I'm sure he'll be just fine

[Ringosmama]

ok ok so about parasites, are they common??

[kibakiba]

Honestly, I wouldn't know. Luckily I haven't had any problems with them. I read that they're somewhat common in wc garters, but an experienced member could answer your question, I'm sure!

[Ringosmama]

yeah i read that and i was kinda like uh..

[Ringosmama]

and whats the best way to START a snake on pinkies? i still havent tryed feeding him, i want to get him on pickies..

Several methods work well.

Try rubbing fish all over the pinkie first, then offer it by holding in tongs in the snakes face.

another method is to put a pinkie or two in the water dish with a couple swimming fish.

I'm sure there are others... these two ways work great for me.

Many times the snake will gobble up the pinkies as well as the fish.
