    Re: found "black snake" eggs

    Beautiful babies! Those aren't black rat snakes though, them's Racers! Typically very belligerent critters.

    Try putting some dead leaves and grass in the bin with them, sometimes those scents along with the pinkie mouse can spur them to feed.

    I think he's right in the fact that they are Racers. Be prepared to have some VERY fast snakes when they get bigger. The can move like no one's business.

    I would say that you should try some different things for food. A tiny frog could do the trick. Maybe a worm?

    With tiny baby wild caught snakes you never know what in the heck they are going to eat.

    also try a small freshly born pinkie alive, I know it worked with corns andthey about the same size.I know with my pastels it the smell plus the movement that triggers their eating.
