good day

new to the forum and had a ribbon snake as a kid. I couldn't find any garter snakes at any shows up here in Canada and recently acquired a skink as my wife refused to let me get a pet that would eat mice. A skink eats bugs, but a garter eats fish and worms (at least in my experience) and could live happily on that.

I'd love to get back into garters and would especially like to get a more "exotix" garter than what we get in Alberta. I really like the looks of the anery red sided as well as the oregon red spotted.

At the same time I'm very reluctant to get something wild caught and would prefer to get something from a breeder here in Canada due to shipping and border concerns.

Any advice and or thoughts are welcome.

Re: good day

Hi and welcome to the forum . In Canada you may want to contact Jonathan Crowe "mcwetboy". He is working with some Garters and plans on doing some breeding.

Re: good day

Too funny, Don .

I just got the privileges to delete and modify post worked out yesterday, so it was good timing. If anyone sees more porn or inappropriate material, please send me a PM with the name of the thread in it, so I can get right to it. I've been viewing other posts for about 30 minutes without knowing this one was there. Thanks a million,
Rick

Also, if you notice a new member's profile that lists a website instead of a real name, could you please forward that as well. I blocked a member called "SexyLolita" the other day. Thanks a million,

I always use that "!' sign, don't you get notifications from that? It's really handy and should bring you directly to the post...

Re: good day

So if I hit the "report post" button, does it go to just Jason, or both of you?

Re: good day

It must go straight to Jason because I don't see any of those reports. Maybe I'm supposed to look somewhere else, but I'll ask Jason about that. Still learning the tricks of the trade .
