Good choice, Josh. I have 1.2 T. radix. They're nice snakes.

People say that they are just about the calmest and friendliest species.

I wonder which one's the nastiest, I've heard a few stories about T. sirtalis similis' attitude.

Re: Getting new snake

I found similis to be quite tame... it was the Florida Blues that were nasty.

Re: Getting new snake

my T. similis was not at all aggressive, just more shy than my other garters

Mikhaila will be getting a pair of T. radix from Scott after our move
they'll be relatives of yours then
we had one a couple of years ago and at the time she was my favourite - even over Sammy

Re: Getting new snake

Looking forward to seeing some pics of your plains garters. I have a t. radix on order from Scott myself. An Axanthic female. In addition to the axanthic plains, I also have a Red-sided (paratalis) and FL. blue striped (similis) on order. All females.
