Re: What are the most attractive and/or unusual species of colubrid available for kee

Very tough call! Indigo has to top the list! Then comes Thamnophis sirtalis tetratenia (San Francisco garter). Last would be Thamnophis sirtalis infernalis (California red sided). Unfortunately, T.S.tetratenia is federally protected but there are some captive bred specimens mainly in Europe and parts of Canada.

I actually know 1 person here who has the Thamnophis sirtalis tetratenia (San Francisco garter). As far as I know hes the only one (may be more but I certainly havent been able to find them). He wants $1000/ cbb baby. as cool as they are I just cant justify that for a single garter and without an unrelated mate not one Ill be adding to my collection.

Wow, that’s a stiff price. A petshop not far from me offers a cb 2011 male of Thamnophis sirtalis tetratenia for 99,00 Euro and a quick search found a breeder who offers his offspring cb 2015 for 90,00 Euro.
