::I have a few Scarlet King babies that won't eat anyting!!!What would be good for them if i don't have small lizards. I heard that they will eat small worms... Any info would be helpful.. Thanks, Blue blueselaphe@yahoo.com

:: First some questions: How old are these snakes? Where are you located? How did you get them? Are they c.b.? W.c.? Scarlet kings are notorious skink eaters and would love one (or parts of) above most else. S.e. 5 lined, and ground skinks are usually easy to get. If you cannot colleect them, some are available from classifieds. Contact me for more info,care sheet,etc. and I'll try to help if I can.

:Mark, The ones I'm haveing trouble with are hatchlings. My adults feed like a young miami corn, I just thaw out the pinks in hot water with an Anole in the cup, humainly dispatched fo course..... It's the babies that are getting me worried. I'm going to try to find a few ground skinks but any other hints, tips or care conciderations would be most helpful.. Thanks, Blue..
