    Dillies are 2-5 cm long. All the young snakes like them. I give them once in the 3-4 weeks. Is also a seafish.

    Cool Re: Update on the young San Francisco garter snakes...

    Today I made pics of the two tetrataenia that were in brumation this summer for some weeks.

    They are doing very well. One of the two is, on average, as big as the snakes that ate well from the start and the other one is 1,5 cm smaller than the bigger one.
    Both eat very good and seem to be very healthy.





    And this was how one of them looked when I placed them in the refrigerator...

    Wow. That is awesome, how did you ever come to think of a short brumation to reset their appetite?

    Is a trick that is used for some years now. Don't know who "invented" it.

    @ Spankenstyne... 1500 dollar for a pair? Wow, that's a lot of money! In Europe 80 euro for a young specimen is the usual price.
