    Ground Snakes

    Took home a ground snake from work that someone brought in yesterday, but I just have one question really. How many crickets should I feed this guy? Is it like a rodent feeder once a week? Or more?

    They're called Ground Snakes. http://www.nps.gov/archive/tont/nature/snakeground.htm
    I actually found out they need a cricket about every other day, hopefully he will eat for me :\

    That cricket every other day thing seems a bit much, they don't have that quick a metabolism.

    Many of them will take night lizards or small Utas as well.
