Naw... i do not get any of that... I have three garters... two male checkereds that are 08 babies and measurign about two feet long and then the other is an 08 checkered female? that was being starved to death that is only about 12.5 inches long. I then have my male 09 baby normal Ball python that is totally chill and getting more use to me every day... and then if all goes well I am going to get him a girlfriend spider ball python that was just born on the 19th of last month.... none of mine do tricks but my albino checkered male 08 has gone to my son's preschool for a presentation... and did not even trip out about it.
