Crushed babies?

Are you able to get feeder guppies at all? Live fish really isn't my first choice, but they do seem to get the babies actively interested in eating.

LOL at cutting up worms. The first time I cut up a worm my kids were sitting across from me at our kitchen bar eating their breakfast. At the first cut worm juice squirted up into my face! ICK! The kids were cracking up laughing... they thought it was hilarious! Me, not so much Now I run them under hot tap water for a second, which kills them nearly instantly, and then cut with scissors... holding them and the worm at arm's length! lol

I agree. I'm a huge proponent in feeding live feeder guppies to newborn garters, it stimulates the feeding response.

Unfortunately, Petsmart has a 1.00 per guppy sale going on, so they are constantly sold out, and they refuse to sell babies. I'm kind of offended that our breeders all died of old age before we got baby garters. All other pet stores around here do not have good stock (they look dead/dying) or just straight up don't have guppies. Apparently they aren't that popular to keep up here, as they were where we are from. D:
