How often?

Arnie's probably just a baby then You could do Pinkies twice a week for him or you could offer him a pinky once a week with fish or worms one or two other times during the week. Most believe a varied diet is best, but many, many garters have been raised on mouse only diets. My two babies are just a little bigger than yours and have just started tanking whole pinkies. I've cut them back to twice a week feedings and that seems to be working out. I'm offering them their pinky first and then letting them eat as much as they like of either worms or fish fillet after they take the pinky. I'll be doing away with the worms as soon as this container is gone.... I just don't like them... but I'll continue offering them mice & fish throughout their lives. I also offer live fish every so often... mostly for the fun of watching them fish for them

Thanks so much for the info, think we will start feeding him twice a week from now on
