i have a 4.5 foot snake same as yours and it wont eat a mouse is that a problem i need to know

[catering2cowards]

absolutely not, garter snakes do eat rodents occasionally in the wild, but for the most part they do not, they mostly eat water-based prey items such as frogs, fish, and earthworms, but also eat toads, and well rodents and sometimes birds, but rarely, and fish do NOT ALWAYS deplete vitamins, for they eat them quite often in the wild, it depends on what fish and from where you get them, in the wild, they eat more than one different type of prey, so where one is laking in vitamins the other has

You need to try cat food and fish. You can try feeding it frozen/thawed smelts that you can get at any grocery store. You can also buy either live, or frozen thawed minnows online. Do not feed goldfish however because when a goldfish is being digested in a snakes body it depletes vitamins for some reason. Also, if you switch to just fish or just cat food, you'll have to supplement with a snake vitamin powder that you can buy online or in pet stores.
