How can I get this garter snake to eat?

Home More advice Pets & Animals

Snake has a broken spine and he's paralyzed from that point on. How do I get him to eat?

Granted, he is a wild snake, so I know it will be difficult, but I can't release him because he can't move about 60% of his body and he's not all that interested in eating, right now.

I know to feed him worms but how do I... give them to him? Also, I notice that people usually take their snake out to feed them. Please explain this entire feeding process to me.
