Re: red-sided garters get like

Probably in that area, but they can be bigger or smaller depending on their diet.

Re: red-sided garters get like

yea, she tagged me once....not too fun, but used to it, been bit many times. I have one of her babies here...more orange than red. I sent her to Scott Felzer year before last. she was older and passed away.
I will be breeding him to my female this year.

Re: red-sided garters get like

I see. I have a male red-sided just under 26" and a female around 35". Wouldn't dream of calling that female big, but she's getting nastier all the time..

Re: red-sided garters get like

do red-sideds get nasty when they get bigger?
I have three and they seem to be getting mellower so far
will there be a turning point?
