    Re: What do you feed your garter (specifically)

    My little Mayor won't eat his pinkies unless they are dangling. If I drop it accidentally from the tongs, he won't go after it or passes it right up. He likes to crawl through the plants and "sneak up" on the pinky. It's funny. I don't think he'll go after anything that doesn't move.

    Do you get earthworms from the backyard? What type of live fish do you feed?

    im not feedin fish myself atm, although its highly recommended by the folks on here. i just had an experience where my female refused pinkies for 2 weeks because all she wanted was earthworms, problems solved now though. you can dig your own earthworms from the backyard if theres no pesticides or weedkillers been used there, or you can get them from a bait store.
