My Heart Beat Theory

[adamanteus]

... would not a snake, with lots of hideys and grasses and chips and rocks and bark like enough room to move around in? Isn't it better to have a larger enclosure - giving the snake what it needs and approximating nature as much as feasible - than keeping them a plastic box too small for them to go any where, unable to use all their muscles and stay fit, and not getting any natural light whatsoever?

I couldn't agree more if I'd written it myself!
However, that said I know that many people use various rack systems without any problems.
For me the whole reason I keep the Garters is for my viewing pleasure, for this they need to be 'show-cased' in a large, attractive 'natural' looking viv.

I like a glass front viv because not only can I see the garters, but they can see me! My garters stare at me as I work. Yeah, they are probably hoping the next meal is coming... but there has to be more to it than that, because they also stare at me after meals sometimes. I also believe that a garter may feel secure in a sweater box, but will be more stimulated mentally if it has places to explore and room to move around.
