Quite a few snakes only come out at night. His waterbowl is his 'hide' where he feels secure. Snakes hunt at night because in the wild, that's when the mice, frogs, and other food are out.

depends on it's size. Don't feed it anything larger around than it's middle. It may be large enough for pinky rat....other than that, I wouldn't feed it anything else, mice and rats are a sufficient diet in captivity.

Jennifer is right!....but don't expect it to eat while it is shedding wait until it is done, then offer it the food, but if it's alive don't leave it in there with out you being present! If it dosen't eat after a couple of minutes remove the mouse/rat and try later. (unless of course the mouse/rat is dead)

Ahhhhh...That covers it pretty well?
In general any small enough rodent or baby rodent, any small enough lizard or other snake...and MAYBE amphibians?
