Re: Garters in the wild

Nice pic......were they all under the same hide? Seem to find garters in groups like that a lot.

Re: Garters in the wild

They were found exactly as you see them in the picture, There are many snakes in this area and sharing hides is probably unavoidable, Our group once found over 50 snakes under one pc of roof tin. They were a mix of garters, browns and fox snake (mostly brown snakes though)

Re: Garters in the wild

Thanks to all for your replies

I am kind of surprised there is not a forum dedicated to just field herping in here.
Or am i just not seeing it??

Re: Garters in the wild

I think that would be a really good idea....to have a field herping forum.
