:I'm not quite sure, but if my memory serves me correct ringnecks generally like slugs and other soft bodied insects.


Ok,

Guess I need to get shovel and start digging for night crawlers. I have seen ringnecks around creeks, and lakes do they like water alot?. This snake may be barely a foot long.
I plan to feed her today. I think its a female cuz the tale is really short. She also has shed her skin. I put a rock in the tank with her for this. What type of substrate should I use? Right now I have her on potting soil since she is wild caught.
When I had my king I had her on aspen bedding.

laterz,
john
