Well this is my 1st female garter who i manged to get off fof fish and onto pinkies. She now as a name to. Medusa. (i love greek mythology.) Anyhow i managed to take some photos of her taking pinkie. hope you enjoy them. (i will post a reply on the other other thread re why she didnt feed.) Hope you enjoy them. I find it truly amazing on how these snakes feed.

P.S. Gregmonsta still cant touch the dead pinkies Ugh. lol.

Good stuff :) Love to watch them eat! My baby boys had their first "big" prey items today, too. Nightcrawlers cut into about inch and a half long pieces. The big pieces were no problem for the boys :D
