Hi Jason, and welcome to the forum.:) It's always nice to see another member from the North West.

Garters are often chosen as a 'starter' snake, though I think this is probably because they are cheap, rather than their ease of maintenance. Other groups of snakes, Rat Snakes for example are probably easier. I'm sure you will soon see that many of our members are far from new to the hobby, but Garters are still their snake of choice.

Once you've posted a few times you'll be able to add photos to your posts, then we'll all be looking forward to pictures of your snakes!:D Incidentally, you haven't mentioned which species/sub-species you're keeping.... can you tell us?
