Hey all,
I did a wires reptile foster care course the other day and one of the instructors had a rescue red naped snake (not sure why it was a rescue, it looked fine to me).
Anyway, this thing was adorable, and my kind of snake, I'd love one. I realise finding one, let alone a pair would be like finding a needle in a haystack, however my question is in regards to feeding - now if these snakes eat predominantly skinks yet we aren't allowed technically to take garden skinks from our yard to feed to something, yet they are on Class 1 in NSW (which would generally indicate not difficult to care for), how do NPWS expect we would be feeding them?
Thanks
