Re: Biggest Garters

LOL! Haha no, she ate nothing for about two weeks until she had the 58 babies then she literally gorged herself on full adult, frozen(then thawed) rats. But sadly i decided to let her go soes i can catch her again....and well a year later i caught her again, and she seriously had to have been almost 6 feet long. I removed about 6 small scales on her tail in a pattern and thats how i know its her, and i caught her again last summer, and she seems to be getting bigger, and the last time i caught her, she had a squirrel sized lump in her body. LOL yes shes big.

Re: Biggest Garters

LOL! Yeah, she was gigantic. My neighboor said that before i caught her, he'd seen that same snake(cause thats where i caught her at), attacking a coupleof hatchling crows, and the mother bird was screaming and constantly flopping around pecking at the snake. Wll, when i caught her she regergitated one of the baby birds. I have pics of that as well, but they hrdly turned up, they look like theres a big grey fog on them.
