Garters in the UK

[gregmonsta]

It's just something I'm pernickety about ... if they respond I'll be asking them which exact sub-species of ribbons they have too. they may still give the right advice, etc.

Hi,

Just a quick question - can different breeds of Garters be kept in the same viv?

Cheers.

Species. As long as they're the same sex.

Yes, but.....
Same sex and size is a good rule.
Wandering garter snakes have a history of cannibalism.
I don't keep Wanderings.
Some other members will clarify any other info.

My advice on communal housing would be this - Communal housing - Thamnophis Alba - The Scottish Garter Snake

On another note - the shop mentioned earlier confirmed their stock was parietalis and I am planning to see what exact ribbon snakes they have in stock with an e-mail tomorrow

Nice read, Greg.

Please let me know if they get back to you! I visited my old Rep shop last weekend when visiting the parents- i was planning on picking up a gulf coast ribbon female whilst i was there- but alas they had finally sold her
