Very true.

Thank you

I realized it's been some time since I posted here. Life got very busy with my photography business and a full time overnight job.

I've still got all my garters although a few of my older ones...

Thank you guys

its probably a red sided with no red

I dont think they can digest other snakes, hence why they usually regurgiate or die after eating a bigger snake.

I know what you mean though.

I learned what fangs felt like when I got my tree boa lol

My friend is looking to get a garter and she's interested in those. Florida Blues and Puget Sounds.

It's early but I'd see if anyone's got any yet.

Thank you all.

ha. love the last picture

You can throw some worms in there too.

I'm watching a baseball game as I type this and the sponsor behind the plate is petco. Taunting me.

I missed the part where you cut the worms. my bad.

Feed him what he can eat...

I'm not a fan of either either. But all the petcos I've been to, especially the one near me, takes the worst care of their animals I've ever seen from a pet store. They have a green tree python right...

I didn't say the market is healthier than the silversides, I meant fillets from a market are more quality than fillets from Walmart or Target, which have killed snakes.

Frozen silversides rock. I...

Ha. I was expecting garters. That's really cool. I've always wanted to try keeping ringnecks..

that's where that precision comes in.

He might as well be starving. That's not enough food. You need to make time to feed him every few days if you're only feeding a worm.

About the throwing up - is he really throwing up? One of my...

I was at a park recently and someone had a 12 foot Burmese on the playground.

"rosy feeders" are rosy red minnows. Don't feed those. You can use them to scent though.

I buy tilapia fillets from Trader Joe's. My snakes prefer them over the silversides. I've never bought it...

yeah they've always been on my list, for the attitude as much as anything, but never got one.. I need some breeding partners for the snakes I and I may just buy a pair of infernalis too.
