    'proper' Blue tree snake

    I have had this one for a long time now. its grown well and just had a shed
    and is looking its best so i took some photo's. I feed mostly freshwater fingerling
    rainbow trout, Trout have all the good stuff like Omega 3 fatty acids and other good stuff,
    I wonder if it helps with health and colour?

    One of the best i've seen pics of for sure. would be interesting to know what the difference is comparable to one that is fed only mice. do you have to worm it often?

    Looking great Dotty, and looking very healthy. Where do you get your trout from? A mate of mine had a nice blue one, though it sadly was another victim of goldfish poisoning...
    Herps.... an itch that just never goes....

    I get them from a trout farm on the out skirts of Melbourne: fishfarm.com.au

    Having played around with different foods and learning from peoples experience, I came to the conclusion that trouts are the best food, Goldfish get sick easily and having seen and heard about the nasty medications they used to treat goldfish my theory is it is in the blood of the goldfish and gets transfered to the Snake. (Copper sulphate is one of those medications) The trout are fed human grade feed so the feed they get fed is of a high quality not like the cheap and nasty food goldies get fed! The only problem is keeping the trout, the temp cant be above 20.c. I have set up a tank with a chiller for holding the trout. some but not all of my tree's will eat defrosted from tongs.

    Cheers,
    Ben

    Can you get Brown Trout? as they handle slightly warmer water than Rainbows (Rainbows being Salmonoids and Browns being "true trout" )
