2020 Plains Garter Litters

I think I’m going to start selling babies here soon. Separate all the picky eaters, and the few that won’t eat ASF (as well as holdbacks), and sell the rest. Clear a few out.

I still have 5 that refuse to eat anything other than live fish, I’m not sure how to get them eating other food. I’ve tried assist feeding but they’re way stronger than the runt and just spit it back out, and I can’t get force feeding to work either. It’s very difficult to find feeder fish small enough for them, especially anything that’s thiaminase free and not $3 each. There is a feeder guppy supplier but they’re out of guppies so I’ll have to try them next week. I’m worried they’re going to starve. I usually get enough for 2 feedings at a time because I can’t feed the fish or set up a tank for them to survive long term, but the last 2 times I went looking for feeders nobody has had any.

Next time I can get feeders I’ll keep going at the scenting bit, but I expect that to be a long difficult road. Took me 3 months to get Draco off guppies when I first got him.
