:How much would you guys feed a 24-26 inch Eastern Garter? Today it ate a huge nightcrawler.

Depends on how big the nightcrawler is. I have fed mine 4-6 nightcrawlers (30-inch snake) at a time. Usually, I feed him enough to cause a noticeable lump, which without seeing your snake I can't tell if one nightcrawler would do the trick.
