What do newborn baby snakes eat and how do they feed them?

After the baby snake is born, do not feed it immediately, just give it water to drink. Wait until 10 days later, about the first molt, before you start eating. During this time.

Baby snakes rely on their own egg yolks to grow. There are also baby snakes that are very cute after birth, and if they are raised at home, don't catch them often to play. Because snakes also need to be familiar with the environment.

Catching and playing at home like this will make it a little difficult for the snake to eat for the first time. So how do you know that a snake sheds its skin for the first time? The snake sheds its skin for about 7 days, and the skin on its belly will turn red and then gradually turn white, and finally reach the eyes, and then wait for its eyes to return to their usual color and begin to peel for about 2 days.

The time of peeling varies depending on the temperature. Each time the baby snake sheds its skin, there will be obvious signs of growth. It will be different for different breeds.

And when the snake is shedding its skin, the environmental layout of the snake room is very important. There should be a basin of water inside, but some branches or small stones.

This is to make it easier for the baby snake to shed its skin. The little snake sheds its skin by rubbing the ground by **. If the ground is too slippery, the snake will not be able to shed its skin successfully.

It is important not to spread sand on the ground, because after the baby snake drinks water, the sand sticks to the snake's mouth and does not get rid of it, which can cause severe oral inflammation or respiratory tract.

Clogged dead. Here are a few common ways to feed small snakes:

1.The feeding method of the small snake of the king snake: after the first skin change, you can feed the suckling mouse or bird eggs, and if you don't eat the snake, you can fill the eggs or meat or eggs and meat with that kind of small sausage skin. The eggs are filled with a syringe.

Took the needle and used the infusion kind of the front section. Pumping eggs is generally about 3 ml per snake, not too much. If you have more, it will be stuffy. After one month, the body length will grow to more than 60 cm.

2.Black snake. It lives in hilly areas and eats snakes, frogs (staple food), lizards.

Fish, rodents, etc. are feeding methods for their small snakes and king snakes.

Almost after the first skin change, find some very small fish or frogs to feed it. If you really can't find that small one, you can also dismember the food and feed it. First put the food on a plate, put it in the small snake room for a few days, if you don't eat it after a few days, you should take artificial feeding, catch the snake with one hand, open the snake's mouth and feed it to eat, about 5 cm below it.

Remember not to feed too much.

3.Black-browed snake.

It is a large non-venomous snake, and the feeding of small snakes is also after the first shedding of skin, and it is generally mainly fed to rats. If you come across someone who doesn't eat or doesn't have a suckling mouse. You can also feed some chicken, beef, pork and other feeding methods. The feeding method is the same as that of the black snake.

Newborn baby snakes eat eggs.

Young snakes are artificially fed at the beginning.

Every 5 to 7 days, feed the eggs.

After feeding for more than a month, the body length can increase from 20 cm to 50 cm, and the body weight will increase by 2 times.

When feeding, only eggs are fed at first, and some chopped artificially prepared snake sausages are added to the eggs to lay the foundation for allowing the young snakes to eat artificial feed on their own in the future. The breeding of young snakes is related to the amount of exercise of young snakes, whether in the snake box or the young snake field, try to let the snake have a sports field, let it exercise more, in order to grow healthily. The wintering of young snakes can be carried out in the snake box, which can be wrapped in black paper with a 30-40 watt lamp and placed in the snake box to be heated regularly.

There should be drinking water in the box at all times**. The temperature in the box can be safely overwintered by keeping it at 5-8.

It is best to feed the mice with an open diet.

Baby snakes must retain a certain amount of energy before wintering, so they must eat enough food and store fat. Also, it is best to use heating equipment in winter, as the seedlings are easy to hang.

Because the young snakes in the first year do not have the adaptability to hibernation, they can be kept in the winter indoor breeding in winter to ensure the temperature and humidity conditions required by the young snakes and the abundant live small animals, hereinafter referred to as winter raising.

The temperature of young snakes should be between 20-28 in winter, and the humidity should be about 50-60%, and most of the young snakes are manually fed mixed feed or liquid juice feed to solve their required nutrition and consumption. Generally, it is fed once every 5-7 days, and a medium-sized (capacity of 20 ml) dumpling syringe can be used when feeding, and each feeding is marked with a scale of 1-2 small grids.

The operation needs to be carried out by two people, one person holds the snake and does not move, and the other person gently breaks the snake's mouth for feeding. In order to get enough live small animals in a timely manner, you can also breed crickets, earthworms, mice, loaches, small trash fish, etc., and you can use the eggs of self-raised quails and partridges to feed young snakes. Generally speaking, the temperature of young snakes in winter during the day is easy to grasp, and the key is to keep the temperature at night not too low.

Breaking the hibernation period of young snakes can not only speed up the growth and development of young snakes, but also significantly reduce the mortality rate of young snakes in early spring, and is of great help to the normal predation of young snakes in the coming year, which is obviously better than that of young snakes that have just emerged.

In addition to maintaining normal temperature and humidity during the winter breeding period, it is also necessary to regularly check the health status or disease situation of young snakes, find problems and solve them as soon as possible. In case of unexpected situations that cannot maintain normal breeding, winter breeding should be stopped as soon as possible to allow it to enter a state of hibernation.

Snakes only eat live animals such as frogs, mice, small birds, chickens and ducks, chicks, fish, loaches and insects. Domestic pet snakes can generally be fed once a week, and pet snakes should not be too full each time.

In addition to the original food, when the original food is reduced, people also use milk, raw eggs, quail eggs, ground bird meat or fish as food for small snakes. Whether the young snakes can actively prey is the key to the success or failure of the young snakes in captivity.

Because any kind of animal must have the instinctive ability to take the initiative to eat in the process of feeding, but artificially fed baby snakes will generally refuse to eat, but to maintain the survival rate of baby snakes, they can only rely on forced artificial feeding.

It is very unrealistic to rely on manual feeding alone for a long time. On the one hand, it is easy to cause injury to young snakes, such as injuring the mouth of young snakes or injecting food into the trachea and causing suffocation.

On the other hand, it is also very inconvenient in operation and management, relying on feeding and raising young snakes, it is impossible to form a scale, and the economic benefits are unsatisfactory. Although current snake keeping books all introduce feeding and feeding;

Any snake in nature can thrive to this day, and its tenacious vitality is accomplished by its own non-stop active predation. Therefore, it is recommended that snake farms (households) try not to over-feed, so as not to develop this bad habit for young snakes.

Open the egg, pour it into a syringe, stuff it in its mouth, and it in. The snake was too small and was given something hard to eat.

Feed him fat worms first, and the snake can swallow food much larger than its head.

Just feed about 1g of suckling mice.

Snakes generally only eat live animals, such as frogs, mice, birds, chickens and ducks, chicks, fish, and loaches.

bugs, etc. A domestic pet snake answered.

Generally, you can feed it once a week, and you can't let the pet snake eat too much each time. It generally takes about 10 days for pet snakes to eat food once to slowly digest it, and they can't feed too much each time, which is easy to kill pet snakes.

It is best to keep a small snake at home, as large pet snakes may entangle you and threaten your life. Domestic pet snakes also need a sturdy and sturdy box to prevent pet snakes from going out and scaring other people.

Snakes belong to the reptiles, the suborder Scaly Snakes. There are also snakes, beetles, beetles, worms, worms, worms, insects and other other nicknames, according to the variety will also have pit pitter, python, viper and other synonymous names, belonging to the order of scales. The body is elongated, the limbs are vestigial, and the surface of the body is covered with scales, and the snake is a vertebrate although it is elongated.

Most of them are terrestrial, but there are also semi-arboreal, semi-aquatic and aquatic ones, and they are distributed all over the world except for Antarctica and islands such as New Zealand and Ireland. Feeds on rats, frogs, insects, etc.
