Welcome to a great forum, Carlo. As you are just getting started with Garter Snakes, this link to their general care should be helpful to you and a good starting place. http://www.thamnophis.com/caresheets/index.php?title=Garter_Snake_Care_Sheet
If you run into any problems, don't hesitate to ask questions. Lots of knowledge here.:)

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.Lastnite I was playing with my albino checquered garter ,btw I got her on a medium size plastic reptile enclosire ,lid on top that you can buy at petstores.Watching her from afar ,i notice she was pretty much active wandering around her enclosure so I picked her up and started playing with her letting her crawl between my fingers,suddenly it dawned on me that she might be hungry so I put her back down and got her a couple of goodsize female guppies to gobble up in her enclosure and guess what,she got all excited and finished the guppies in no time.I was excited too in a way,at least now I know she has a good appetite.It's just a matter of time now before I can convert her diet into pinkies.I'll keep my fingers cross.Thanks again guys.I'll be posting some pics soon.
