    Re: Wild Garter -- Care Suggestions

    the only thing you could add to give her all shedding conveniences, is a damp hide, if she doesn't have one
    I make mine out of appropriately sized food storage containers with damp moss inside and a hole cut in the lid
    some of my snakes totally ignore them, but most love them, particularly when in shed

    Re: Wild Garter -- Care Suggestions

    Ooo! That's a good idea for a hide! I think that she'll love it, even when she isn't in shed. Probably not more than burrowing in the substrate, but still ... (She makes me wonder if garter snakes are all so fond of burrowing or if it's just her!) Thank you.
