    I think it is time to put the pied thing to rest... they didn't prove out obviously, and selling them for anything more than the price of a normal garter would just be silly. I understand people don't want to lose out on the investments made, but, you win some you lose some. If they are sold it should be clearly noted in ads that the pied trait has not been proven out at all and that you are essentially buying a normal garter snake.

    I agree. It's just some people are really good at wording things intentionally (but without actually lying) in a way that you get the wrong impression. The ad clearly said these F1's were unproven. While that very well could be true, their siblings have been bred and it's proven that they are just normal easterns.
