It was cool! It was a flashback to a week ago Sat! I could relive it. :D

I completely understand the being unable to take your eyes off them. I spent 90% o'that Sat just sitting with my nose glued to the tank. And still... They're the first thing I check on when I get up, before I leave for work, when I get home, and a couple times during the evening, and the last thing before I go to bed. It is still so hard for me to believe I've got two garters!

Ok. Here we go.
DISCLAIMER:
If you see green, its really BLUE. If you see BLUE. It's really BLUER!! And they are much bigger then they look in the pics. The biggest girl with the cute scar is a long term "Bob" survivor.

Although I must agree that the "government" is stupid.

The laws are necessary, without them, folks like Bob would really get out of control.

Yes it does make it inconvenient and frustrating for those of us who would genuinely love and care for animals, it protects the animals from those who do not have the most honorable intentions.

Hi all. Amanda,
I'm glad you got the snakes in good health and are pleased with their appearance. You've probably already noted their good muscle tone and explorative nature. Two of those have reproduced for me in the past, including the large one with the scar. I wish you every happiness with them and many litters to come. Best regards,
Rick
