Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

I'll try.
Seeing as my precious male died... *God rest his scales...* My parents are willing to buy me a pair of any garters I come across at the show. Normally, there aren't many garters, and occasionally a sickly albino checkered comes up, but if I can't find anything there, I'm ordering 5 wildcaught florida blue sirtalis sirtalis and similis. I've yet to figure out the ratios, but I'm getting a pair of one and a trio of the other.
EDIT-
Just checked the guy's prices, and I can actually get a trio of each!

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

enjoy, Kyle

we're ripping a crappy built-in wardrobe out of Mikhaila's room
why on earth did they have to use sheetrock???
anyway - it's gonna be medium fun level
I have to run out to fetch some live minnows for Mesa
then we'll move some garters around, clean some tanks, feed some babies . . .
either today or tomorrow we'll pick up our uromastixes (? plural?)
and we're also planning to go slot car racing
full weekend, huh?

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

We're in the middle of another snowstorm, and I have to work, do groceries, and clean and feed the snakes and toad.
You figure out how much fun I'm gonna have!!

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

It's raining buckets here but very warm... I need to clean the house... but what I want to do is curl up in bed with doggies, my book, and an unending cup of coffee. Hmm, wonder what will win out?? :-)

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

between snowstorms here, just got through blowing 6 inches out of the driveway, getting another 5-10" tonight. Just checked Chloe (dog) for multiflora rose thorns (rabbits love to hide in them and she loves to sniff out the rabbits) only one of the nasty little things in her back, don't seem to bother her, guess dogs are just a little more stoic them people. Going to go bake some bread now, it's that kind of day. Checked the sunroom for snakes the other day (some of you know what I am talking about). Nothing yet. Enjoy the day everyone.

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

Woo! Just got back from the show. No sign of any garters, but I picked up an adorable little female butter corn snake and some silk worms for the beardies.
However...
MY dad saw an old colleague from work at the show, and he has a 2 foot female albino checkered garter who doesn't eat alot, and he was wondering if I'd like to trade a corn for her. HECK YES.
I'm offering the female Miami phase who's a little *****. XD

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

good trade, Kyle
and Terry
I wish I could be up there is the snow
all we get is rain rain rain
and I'm sick again - sheesh
so I couldn't get myslf to treck to the petshop to get minnows
so I tried feeding Mesa some f/t minnows and salmon strips, but she wouldn't go for it, so I have to make the trek after all
the problem is that the mta uses the weekend for repairs, so what would ordinarily be just a train ride, now becomes a train ride, switching to a shuttle bus, and then switching back to the train
or, alternately, a train ride and a 15 block walk
oh, maybe it's not raining today
I just have to remind myself what a wimp I am compared to Shackleton and his guys

Re: Its oh so quiet Shh Shh

Velvet, our crested gecko passed yesterday
we'd adopted him from the rescue and he came with some handicaps
he went quickly - kidney failure
he was a sweet little guy and I'm sure in whatever netherworld geckos go to, he'll be able to climb as well as the rest of them
