An hour later he was still watching me, and continued to do so until I finally got in bed. When I had to get up and go to the bathroom half an hour after turning the light out, I noticed that he had curled up in his log hides.

Re: Cuddles!
I just noticed it and wanted to make sure it wasn't a current wound. But it is very small...no big deal. Snakes have marks and small little scars and imperfections here and there. Some they may have been born with...or with wild caught garters, surely they scrape themselves on things in the wild and get little injuries that heal up. Nothing to be concerned about. Unless you see an open wound or a swollen/inflammed area that looks like it is infected...don't worry. If you ever have a question about any sort of issue with your snake...just post a pic and ask. @Dae...I forgot to tell you that I read in a book about the odd shaped scales that you had posted pics of before...they are called cleft scutes and they are a common birth defect.

Re: Cuddles!
The "scar" is teir bellybutton pretty much. They all have them and they heal up when they get older.

Re: Cuddles!
That's interesting to know...I did not know that about snakes. I don't see any marks like that on any of my snakes though.

Re: Cuddles!
It goes away as they get older.

They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

Re: Cuddles!
Some pictures of my baby today, wandering around after taking a worm yesterday. No progress with the fish, but I''ll be trying another worm-fish mixture tomorrow or Tuesday! I really want to get him on a diet that isn't worms. Fish...pinkies...I don't care. I feel like the worms aren't nutritious enough and I don't have supplements yet.

This picture's from a couple of days ago. I thought it was a cute pose.
