Stefan's garters

[enigma200316]

According to my sources, T. elegans should be a species that spends its time on the ground and under debris, even when they're basking. Why then, are both of mine arboreal?

Also, their poop is red. Who wants to guess why?

I think all snakes or atleast most all can be arboreal atleast a little if they want........

Very nice, Stefan!

[Snaky]

Seen it without sound... nice movie! They can be rather stupid

Love your vagrans babies!

[tikichick]

Cool!! I was cheering that little guy on, lol. Nice setups!

Your little tetra seems more interested in seeing what you're doing than eating her food!!
That was a fun video, Stefan! thanks for sharing.

[Stefan-A]

Yeah, the tetra kept trying to climb up the tongs and was really just too excited about being fed to care about the food item itself. Really hyper.

I got bored so I decided to measure my snakes.

The vagrans that I used to refer to as "the small one": 40.5 cm
The one that I used to call "the big one": 40.8 cm (funny, it looks a lot bigger than the other one)
The tetra: 36.5 cm


And the smaller of the vagrans juvies is turning grey. I don't know about the bigger one, it's in the cloudy phase.

Are those SVL or overall length, Stefan?

[Stefan-A]

Overall lengths.

Would be interesting to measure the SVL, too. In case one turned out to have a longer tail.
