Dangit Albert! Stop making me want all the garters! Lol

Thanks Mink! They are a very terrific looking garter that is a real pleasure to own. These eastern black necks have a amazing kill strike on their prey. They are unbelievably accurate when they strike out too. I love them.

Wow that is a pretty garter.

Luckily as long as you separate by sex you can keep a group of several different species in one enclosure. No reason not to get them all Mink.

I am excited to be keeping this species. He is no bigger than a worm at this point, but he shows no sign of being nervous whatsoever.

Like I need any convincing Meso! Lol

I saw some garters for the first time today. Impossibly cute snakes and not one I'd considered before but I'm beginning to feel left out with all of you getting them!

Garters always remind me of the time I TA'ed for my favorite biology teacher way back in middle school and she had a garter snake. On my down time I'd take him out and hold him. Pretty chill little snake for a garter and probably what got me interested in snakes in the first place. I do think I startled the kids with how fearless I'd be about holding him. Or just holding a snake in the first place.
