maggots for food for baby garters

You might end up having to start them with something live if they don't catch on. Fish-wise guppies are a safe option. A less expensive route would be to get some lobworms to start them off - Fishing Worms and Bait - Lobworms | Worms Direct
These will wriggle about in a bowl of fish strips and will entice most to eat. You can then gradually reduce the amount of worm until they are on fish as the staple

thanks for the advice. Any idea how long until I can start adding pinkies to their diet? Well, how long until they are big enough?

That depends on how good you are at chopping them up , I've managed to get pinkies in as part of a mixed diet very early by cutting them into strips lengthways. You can cut one pinky into about three strips to begin with and then move to offering halves. I would aim to offer about 60-70% fish and 30-40% rodent eventually (but those are just my preferences).
