    They like the guts and all that, I just think they don't like the worm dirt.
    Garter snakes are very amusing to watch eat, I had to break up a few games of tug-a-war last time before someone got bit.

    I have a T.radix from the ranch in green that has just that attitude when eating. He’ll take the pink violently.
    Have of his viv mate just brush him … man he just goes wild running around with the pink still in his mouth.

    My little mighty mouse (normal greenish radix) does that. He's all angry and doing the viper impression and strikes at his pinky parts very violently. He's something else.

    Unfortunately he had some kind of growth disorder. He just never grew much at all, and eventually died. Nearly 3 years old and still under 12 inches.

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