Re: Lampropeltis mexicana thayeri Rescue
The skin around his eye is gone now, its a 20 gallon long and its on a dimmer switch I made until I can get a thermostat. Is a 20l the largest I need for this snake or will he need a bigger one? Should I still offer food every week? If so should I feed adult mice or try the two small hoppers like recommended on the caresheet? Here is a couple pictures I promised.

Your tank is fine.
I'd stick with mice.
He looks good.
Re: Lampropeltis mexicana thayeri Rescue
good news is he is eating now but he doesnt have the best instincts, he tried to swallow the mouse without killing it so this week I got a f/t which he ate again without constricting so looks like its f/t from mnow on. Any ides if this snake is to old to sex?
