Hello, everyone! I am Tina (Tina the Fishy), and I just joined the forum. I have wanted a snake since I was five years old, and I am finally making that dream come true. I don't have a snake yet, but that will soon change. I have already done a lot of research, and feel confident that I am ready to own a snake. I would like to get a california red sided garter snake, and I know that this snake is tough to aquire, but I am not going to give up (because this is the only snake that was approved by my mom, and happens to be my favorite). I know this might not be the right place to post a wanted ad, but since I don't know my way around the forum yet...
WANTED: California red sided garter snake.:D
I will gladly take direction as to where that wanted ad needs to go. :) I will very much appreciate any help on aquiring this snake. I have already contacted four breeders. Anyone want to help my dream since five years old come true? ;)
Thanks everyone!

Hey Tina, I was just browsing on Fauna Classifieds for fun, and I found a listing for California Red-sided Garters:

2017 CALIFORNIA RED SIDED GARTER BABIES (infernalis) - FaunaClassifieds (http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/forums/showthread.php?t=632142)

Not sure if any are left, but this could be a good place to keep looking.

EDIT: Didn't look at the year - looks like this was from 2017.

I looked at the last page of that thread. There might actually still be a chance! Thanks PanUzasny, that was a good idea! If anyone else has any other ideas on where to look, I would love to hear it!

Send a PM to Albert Clark here on sSNAKESs...that's who I bought my lone female from a year ago.
