Re: Indonesian Garter Snakes
Kuno ( jeweldragons ) has a few as well, and maybe expecting babies too. But he went on honeymoon today for 2 weeks to USA, so he'll not be able to answer soon

Re: Indonesian Garter Snakes
I've had then in the past, years ago. I never bred them but found them pretty easy to keep. Just like North American Garters really. When I got them they were full of worms, and judging by some of the threads on here, that seems to be the norm.

Re: Indonesian Garter Snakes
mine have lovely personalities
I feed them on my lap and they take scented pinkie rght out of a bowl they prefer the pinkie over the minnow it got scented with, but don't yet go for unscented They're a lot like garters when handled, they wrap and hang on more than the average garter their heads seem large in relation to their bodies, and they seem more long and slender - like a ribbon snake with a large head I like them a lot

Re: Indonesian Garter Snakes
I've had 2 for 6 months and they are very low maintainence pets. They really enjoy being handled and eat easily. I feed mine rosey reds and frozen fish.
I feel they like the temperature a little higher then garter snakes. What are you looking for in these snakes? Bob |

Re: Indonesian Garter Snakes
I kept them a few years. The care is the same as for gartersnakes.
But, as always for Asian wildcaught snakes... they are full of parasites like worms.
