Hi I'm new to the whole garter snake thing, but its been catch and release whenever I see them around. After my recent trip to yellowstone and catching some terrestrial garters (not sure the species) I really wanted one. I got my self a baby Thamnophis S. Similis I believe, which is a Florida blue garter if i am correct. I hope to have a fun time at the forum and discuss the excitements and joy of keeping these wonderful little critters
