Garter Snake Forum - Garter Caresheet (http://www.thamnophis.com/index.php?page=caresheet) take a look at this, all the info you will need right here. A varied diet between fish and worms is great. They seem best on a rodent diet if you can get them to take a mouse.

Not too fat, but with females, they will get fatter than males
