Baby Black Rat Snakes eat pinkie and fuzzy mice, small lizards, small frogs, crickets, grasshoppers, anything that they can over power and consume.
Rat snakes eat small birds, rodents, frogs, and other small creatures.
Snakes should be fed prey that are in proportion to their size. A baby / small rat snake would be fed "pinkie" mice which are newly born mice. They are small enough to fit easily in a small snakes mouth. As the snake grows it's prey should increase in size too.
I'd recommend once you get to prey that can bite, switch to frozen mice and rats.
When ready to feed just put one in a plastic bag and submerge it in warm apx. 100 degree F water to thaw it out. You do not want to feed a frozen item to your snake.
It varies..
Corn snakes in the wild would eat mice, maybe rats and small lizards but in captivity tend to eat mice
Royal Pythons will eat rats in captivity but in the wild would eat mice, rats, small rabbits and other small rodents,
Most other snakes would eat small rodents and lizards maybe a bird or two..whatever it comes across on its travels
eggs,bugs,other snakes
If the black snake is large enough, they can. However, if the rat is too big, it can injure the snake.
That depends. The term black snake can apply to many different species of snake. The black rat snake, Pantherophis obsoletus, sometimes called the black snake, is indeed a rat snake.
The longest black snake in North America is named the black rat snake. The record size recorded of this black rat snake is eight feet in length. Which makes the black rat snake is the record longest.
