: I would like to know what would be the best beding for my red tail green rat snake?
: Also I still have not gotten him to eat yet, any tips?

For substrate I use spagnum moss (for humidity). I provide alot of platic ground cover in the form of plastic leafy vines. I also use live small palms for climbing. As these are living they also help with the required humidity. As far as feeding how old/big is he? Try prekilled mice scented with chicken broth lay it on a branch and walk away. Do this during the day as that is when these guys are active. If left alone for several hours, I bet you come back to a fat snake and a missing mouse. Good luck

Respectfully,
Jarrett
