Re: Biggest Garters

It is big, Jeroen.
What do you keep in those open "boxes"?

Re: Biggest Garters

jeroen?

in keep leopardgecko's in those open boxes. Had a lot of offspring which made a rack system the best option.
I use the same 'curvers' for N. Maura and garter babies, only with a lid
When some garters are sold and i only have a few left, i keep them in a normal terrarium...just because i really love looking at them!

Nothing wrong by keeping those in curvers, but I agree... you cannot enjoy the a s much.

Re: Biggest Garters

How long does it take to grow that long/ how old is that snake?

Re: Biggest Garters

she is 3 years old, has been eating pinkie mice as a baby, and on to adult mice now. garters can grow fast on a rodent diet. I have 2 nice red oregon red spots I got last year as newborns that are taking pinkie rats. they were about 8 inches long last July when i got them, the male is about 18 inches long and the female about 16 inches. I will post other large garter pictures later when I get my regular computer running again.
