    Re: picture of my garter awhile back

    Nice, but waiting for some newer pictures.

    I was wondering about some things. Like this is really a caught snake. Did you treat her after you captured her? If you did, how did you proceed?

    In Belgium we can't hold any species native to Belgium ( that's what I've been told ). I know some species of garters can't be kept in their native parts in the US either. Is this all bound to specific state laws or does an organisation is responsible for it?

    Snaky,
    Laws on keeping any wild caught animals, reptiles, etc. differ from state to state in most cases. Here in South Carolina the only snakes that are illgal to capture and or keep are Indigos and Southern Hognose.

    Treat her? Like for parasites? No, she seemed healthy and I've had no need to go out and spend money treating a snake that is fine on its own. If the snake can survive outside with a parasite or to, why can't they inside? 2 years and no problems so I think she's clean.

    As for where I caught him, rocky mt. region united states, in an empty grassy lot.
