I was always on the old thamnophis.com site....then it disappeared and this one started....I think I am one of the very first people to sign up on here!
it was surely google that got me here - I had a snake I wasn't sure about
what puzzles me now is what I googled to get here because I don't recall thinking that it was a garter

hahaha.... I googled "does anyone actually like garter snakes"
because as I started realizing I really like garter snakes... I thought.... my god, I am crazy... NO ONE likes garter snakes!!! As a teen I had many other kinds of snakes, kings, corns, pythons, boas... but somehow I kept gravitating back to my garters. I kept thinking to myself... is this normal??? shouldn't I be past garter snakes by now???? Little did I know...
Mother of many snakes and a beautiful baby girl! I am also a polymer clay artist!
Me too. I'm really fond of some gopher snakes and rat snakes and I've kept kings/milks for their beauty but my favorite buddies have always been garters. Of course it's normal, garters are fun to interact with and they have great personalities on top of being very easy to care for. What's not to like?
And hey, Steve, I know how you feel. I'm sure you'd be fond of concinnus too. Females get big, they're smart, and very lovable too. Just like radix. I'll have to get you one or two this spring.
