Question
we have a texas brown snake that my son caught about 3 weeks ago. this morning we woke up to find that she had babies. 10 of them. we know what to feed her but what are we supposed to feed the babies? please help!

Answer
Hi Kelly
Congrats!  :-)  The babies will have their first shed within the next 10 days.  After they shed offer them a baby pinkie mouse. It is best to feed them each seperately in containers in a quiet area. Then when they are done feeding you can put them back together.  Good luck
