What happens when you breed Spider-Man to garter snakes?

Seen that before. :)

I had one for years that would get wet in his water bowl and escape up the glass.

It's cool how they do that.

Another thing people don't think about... I see garters up in trees while I am outside, They are excellent (semi arboreal) climbers.

That blew my mind... I've got 7 adults and 18 babies, I never see them on the ground, half are at least a few inches down in the substrate eating worms, or up in the live plants in their cage. I've never seen em on the ground when they weren't pursuing prey, same formy dekays

My Dekayi were climbers as well.

Just never seen it in the wild.

Very interesting behavior. I wonder what natural situation mimics this. I mean they obviously didn't reason out the science of sticking to glass. Very neat indeed.

nice behaviour observations, water tension is pretty strong!


live plants

sorry to say, but that plant is far from live :D

[stephanbakir]

My viper outgrew it and thrashed it round pretty hard :p
