well i've been keeping reptiles for a while now and i've always wanted to breed them. I did have a little bit of the breeding experience when my wild caught eastern garter snake had one baby (who unfortunately died about 2 months after it was born :( ) and I really want to try again when im expecting it and garter snakes.. correct me if im wrong.. seem like there easier to breed and raise then other snakes. so is there any advise on how i can get started, or if there are things i should avoid? any thing really.
~ thanks, Fenn

p.s is garter snake genetics the same as like a ball python? not like a hybrid way but like if an albino and a normal breed the babys will be 50% normal and 50% normal het. albino? oh and i really want to know what i can get with breeding my red phase eastern and what i could breed him to and get some cool looking babys.
