[Skits]

Wow that captive bred is really gorgeous! I never knew they actually varied in colors so much.

[Trollbie]

The last pic made my mouth drop!

[GarterPython]

Aren't the infernalis garter snakes amazing. < My avatar is a San Fransisco Garter Snake and if i'm not misstaken they are different types of Garter Snakes but look the same.

[Trollbie]

Wayne do you breed them? I'd take that over a white one :D

[GarterPython]

I'm not sure if you want one. From the research that I have done and the talking that I have done with wayne they are not nice. I think Wayne said he has worked with them for years and he still hasn't had a nice one.

[Trollbie]

Well it could be my one snake only to look at! Penelope and Zeus are my holding snakes lol

[infernalis]

Typically biters and musk flingers..

To answer your question, it's still debatable with the Infernalis / tetrataenia gene pool, they are so close same range, same diet, same habitat, the only difference being interconnecting black bands on the Infernalis, they are absent on the tetrataenia, but other than that, they are identical in every way.

[GarterPython]

Okay. I was looking into getting one for a ong time but they are mean and I wanted a nice holding snake. Plus they are really hard to find in Canada.

So do you breed them?

[infernalis]

I may be able to set you up with one...

[GarterPython]

Trollbie if you get one I am definitly moving in!

[GarterPython]

Even though there isn't as much of a point since I have my corn but I can still get the Carpet Python I have always wanted.

[Trollbie]

How much? :)

I told you if you move in, you can have anything you want. As long as you take care of it. :D

[GarterPython]

Oh ok. Then I'm getting more Cockroaches!!!!!!! Just for you! LOL

[Trollbie]

Oh ok. Then I'm getting more Cockroaches!!!!!!! Just for you! LOL

Sure. You take care of them, and you feed my gecko with them.

[GarterPython]

No I hate cockroaches too. I was just teasing you. The one thing I would get first would definitly be a Carpet Python or a Hognose.

[Trollbie]

I want a carpet too. When I have moneys, I think I'm gonna buy a Woma first though. I love them!


But back to Wayne's thread... My lower jaw is still dropped :D

[KORBIN5895]

I want an infernalis! How much are they?

[GarterPython]

The ones I have seen are anywere from 100-200$ but that might be really expensive or really cheap. Don't know much about the price.

[alessia55]

I have first dibs in Trollie's home.

[GarterPython]

Pfffft! We have already planed this out alessia. I am moving in for a couple of years then we are going to Vancouver for a while then we are moving in with BB. You can come to if its ok with Trollbie. She is adopting me. lol

You're kidding me. Trollbie likes me more than she likes you. :rolleyes: you are blind to the obvious, my child.

[infernalis]

That is the correct range, depending on colour.

there are some born with a drab yellow back stripe, and it never turns blue, those go for half of the price the neon blue ones cost.

[Trollbie]

You're kidding me. Trollbie likes me more than she likes you. :rolleyes: you are blind to the obvious, my child.

I am a troll of my word. And GarterPython is correct. But you are welcome to come for sure! You can be our money maker since you're good at it :D

That's actually not bad! Do you have a picture of a yellow stripe one?

[alessia55]

What! I thought I was your favorite! :( Plus GarterPython is underage and can't have coronitas and mimosas with us!! :laugh:

[alessia55]

I like the one with the neon blue stripe more... that blue stripe really pops out

[infernalis]

This one had more of an olive (drab) stripe... Same litter.

[Trollbie]

What! I thought I was your favorite! :( Plus GarterPython is underage and can't have coronitas and mimosas with us!! :laugh:

But he can make them for us! :P

[Trollbie]

Wayne those are awesome too! I really like the oliveish one

[jaleely]

I like them all. They are soo cute. Hubby likes the flame, or the blue stripes, but I'd be happy just having a couple checkereds or whatever would live happily with me : ) being stared at, feeding them all the time...etc. lol

[KORBIN5895]

Do the yellow stripes breed out blue stripes?

[shaunyboy]

its been a while since you've posted garter pic's mate,glad you've put some up (i've missed them)

its got to be amazing to have wild garters in your back yard

and your infernalis is so vibrant in colour mate,he's a beauty

cheers shaun

[youngster]

*drooling*

[infernalis]

Do the yellow stripes breed out blue stripes?

Yes, crossing the yellow with the blue muddies up the colour.

[MoreliAddict]

Finally a bit of Garter stuff from you, Wayne. It's been a while! (EDIT: I wrote that before seeing Shaun's post) Your specimen is as blue as it gets.

[alessia55]

....Where did the photos go? :confused:

[youngster]

Alessia they are showing up for me, weird :confused:

[KORBIN5895]

So two yellows won't make a blue?

[Kingsnakechris]

I really really like the blue! Id be just as happy with the yellows though!

[Lankyrob]

So two yellows won't make a blue?

Dont be daft - yellow and GREEN make blue!!! :):elvis::):rolleyes:

[KORBIN5895]

Okay, so, what sub-species is this? I'm trying to learn some garters, but I don't want to say what I think because I know I'm just guessing!

[infernalis]

Thamnophis Sirtalis Sirtalis - Eastern Garter snake.
