Need advice on buying garters over the net.

[ConcinusMan]

Recently got back into reptiles & want to breed garters.However all the shops I've been to don't have any.Having never Bought a pet online or had one shipped I've have some concerns.Any advice would be greatly apprecited.

And you probably never will find them in a pet store. Garters live in Nevada, therefore, it would be illegal to sell one in a pet store. Some western u.s. stores sell ribbon snakes though, since they cannot be found (in the wild) in the west.

I've been curious about how to ship too. Some years ago, I had dozens of young concinnus on my hands. Couldn't find a single soul anywhere who was interested in them, or anyone who already owned them. Released them all! Now I see that has changed and I'll be getting a pair next spring and start breeding again.
