Thank you for all of the warmest wishes!! What a great community!! I will def. Post pics of my snake that was injured. This site is wonderful and full important information. My snake is doing great and is actually healing nicely. I live in Northwest IN. and it is getting very cold here, so the best bet is to keep it over winter. But right now, I am looking for a vet in my area because I want to check to see if its jaw is broken also. It has not eaten, but as I have read on this site, garters do not eat much right now anyways. I am just really worried about its jaw. I will post some pics up as soon as I can. Maybe someone can give me some ideas.
