    Past Snakes

    A lot of the posts I have been reading here lately here are a bit on the sad side. Everything has to die at some point (except maybe that weird jelly fish) but it is never easy when that happens; but sometimes we loose our pets for reasons other than death.
    A while back I had to sell off my red sided garters and i regret it but at the time it was in their best interest, so I have decided to make this thread for the snakes that we no longer have but are the reason we continue to love snakes. Feel free to add you pics, I hope you will.

    This is my favorite snake




    These are her babies

    Great looking snakes, Stefan.
    The first photo, the male is awesome. He looked like he had an interesting(good) attitude.

    This is my son, Scar. I miss him everyday. We had a good connection. I miss that face and all that came with it.

    He had a great attitude. The calmest male I've ever seen.

    Those kind of males are hard to come by. I had a loaner male this Spring that was that way. I didn't want to give him back. His owner says he may return him to the Ranch after his breeding duties are done for the year. I'm hoping he comes back.

    Actually, I'm going to go as far as to say that he was the calmest garter I've ever seen. My female wandering garters are pretty damn mellow, but that male was even more laid-back. They'll twitch a little when you touch them, but that male wouldn't even do that.

    If I could only get my male wandering garters to become that calm.
