Re: found this on kingsnake

he might be eating the crickets, but hes not getting anything out of them....they aren't part of the garters diets...they are unable to digest the exoskeltons.

Re: found this on kingsnake

Never saw a garter eating crikets.
Heard a lot about it, pro and contra.
Can you take a picture of it?

when you get your pile of books, there's one that has a photo of a garter eating a cricket
Mikhaila and I a certain that this must be a photo of a wax model

Re: found this on kingsnake

I've seen a picture of a garter holding a cricket in its mouth, but just one picture and of course you can't know whether the snake actually swallowed it.

Re: found this on kingsnake

If my memory serves me correctly, the snake in the picture I'm thinking of was a ribbon. I'm not sure where I saw it, probably not here, possibly on kingsnake.com.
