Answers:
They will eat earthworms and small minnows.
They will not eat crickets, meal worms, or other insects.
Did your son catch a gravid female?
My recommendation is to release the babies WHERE THE MOTHER WAS ORIGINALLY CAPTURED!
14 baby garters are going to be more than you want to handle, I promise.
really small feeder fish.
use can use small feeder fish
crickets
smashed mealworms, silkworms
they should be ready for real food in 2 to 3 weeks
small parts of what you feed your garter- worms and small feeder fish are good. small insects are good too, like meal worms, silkworms, and small crickets.
Try the really small minnows.
No need to cut up worms . Feed slugs , small fish like minnows , meal worms , bugs but no lightning bugs they are poisonous ,earth worms , red worms etc. Check out http://www.repticzone.com

But small fish will do
