Garters in the UK

[gregmonsta]

You will find them quite difficult to track down but they are out there. I would recommend tracking down private breeders and keeping an eye on forum classifieds.
I'm based in Scotland and hope to have some success round about April with my active breeding projects. Home - Thamnophis Alba - The Scottish Garter Snake
Other members here will pipe up . I know ZombieKitty is hoping to breed tetrataenia this year and you might want to try contacting the British breeders in the links section of my website.
If you do find them in shops really do check them over - a lot are WC and there is a very good chance that they will have been mis-labeled/mis-represented as well as not having been kept properly.
Here's an example - http://www.thamnophis.com/forum/gene...ter-hobby.html

you should also join thamnophis.uk as the name suggests it is a British site
there's a couple of of good reasons for this, not least from your point of view its where a number of British and European keepers advertise their young and perhaps you might get some adults if you advertise on it
the other reason is it is greatly under used, but has the potential to help garter enthusiasts on this side of the Atlantic to a very large degree, if only the brit keepers devote a little time to it each week
