back from the dead....
 ...well not really but almost.Hi everyone! It´s been a while and my excuse is serverproblems with my internet, I´ve moved to a new home and amidst of all this I´ve had to work my behind of to make ends meet the last couple of monhts. I haven´t had much time to surf so to speak. But! Now I´m here again and I have a question for you all..... Have anyone of you nortamercian residents who have the privilege to see garters in the wild ever noticed how deep a garter is capable of diving in water? (or anyone of you who for some reason have a very deep waterbowl in your tank  )Or does anyone have a godd guess or anything? I came to think about it yesterday and thought I´d ask! |

Re: back from the dead....
well I've seen my Garter go down about six inches in its water bowl to catch a fish before.......I don't know exactly how far they will go in the wild, but I'm sure they can go as deep as they want........
 oh yea and welcome back.....

Re: back from the dead....
In the wild they dive several meters deep when neccesary.
