Some newborns....
Opened my female e. garter's box today to find she had given birth to 20 babies overnight. Here's a few. They all think they're something to fear!

Nice picture! I love the patterns they have.
I found a wild garter snake that looks very much like your babies on the road about a week ago. I picked it up to move it because it couldn't get up the cement curb. The critter was fast and it released it's odor. ~stinky~

Very cool! I saw two of my garters give birth at the same time a few years back. It was quite a sight.
Cograts, Mark!

Thanks everyone. Although they are not "blue striped" garters, some of the adults from my area do tend toward a blueish color as they mature. Some are very pretty.

Geez Vanan, you KNOW I have mangrove water snakes don't you?
You know, even with all the variety and all the morphs out there, it's still a thrill to see the babies of the herps you grew up with!
So......I usually have a lot of the native locals including racers and ringnecks and kings and corns and rats and coachwhips and waters and scarlets and... and.....
HA!

Doh! Hence the wink. You should try getting your hands on the albino ringneck!

There was an albino found here just a year or so ago. Somehow the finders thought they had a million bucks and wouldn't let anyone experienced help them out with keeping it. You can guess.... it's now in a jar.. Too bad.

There's just something irresistable about those little garter attitudes that makes them SUCH a joy to keep!

Very cool. Are they hard to get started? Will they convert to mice?
Cheers,

Trevor, in my experience they will eat earthworms and fish, and frogs immediately, but I've never really tried to switch 'em to rodents. I have seen adults eat mice though on rare occasions. Still, I think they'd be no big problem. Easy enough to get feeder fish and worms though.
