Re: My Garter Died Don't Know The Reason (Grapic Pics D-up W)

allow me to clarify that by humidity I meant damp bedding. I know they need humidity, just they need it in the right places. I have about 50 garters.

But one thing, I have never seen a garters eyes become cloudy upon death!

Indeed, you're correct, the snake appears to be preparing to slough. But the 'beautiful blue green colour' mentioned in the first post is a natural phenomenon associated with death.
