Springfield.. a small bunch of us are going hurping this weekend to see what we can find near Branson.. Were not keeping anything just going to look take pics and such... Might find me one garter baby i don't know its going to be debatable..

[Lori P]

Natalie, maybe post here the requirements of your rescue, also, so people know what to expect when adopting one of these snakes.

[GartersRock]

Interesting. I would like to see what you get in. ;)

[Charlet_2007]

well normally i don't adopt out of state if i cant help it.. but in certain cases where I'm overly full like i am now i ask for out of state assistance.. I normally ask if you do adopt from me to please bring me back the reptile if you can no longer care for it.. But being out of state that cant happen.. All i ask is love this little reptile like one of your kids.. i am very picky who i choose.. Please don't be mad at me if i don't choose you as i might choose you for a later rescue.. if any one of you would like fill out a adoption appt. and contract on my website and send it to me, me and my husband will reveaw it and will get back with you as soon as they are all looked over..

also just to give a run down if we come across wild snakes in our area.. As I get more WC it seems then CCB.. People get them in the wild and then keep them by the time i get them its to late to put them in the wild again because they don't know how to live in the wild..:(:( if you click on the name of the snake it goes to the conservation page and you can see the pic of the snake..

[brigitte]

what do you have available for adoption?

[ssssnakeluvr]

I am interested in all garters and some rough greens if you get them!! :D

[Charlet_2007]

nothing adoptable yet but will be here soon

[infernalis]

I am interested in all garters and some rough greens if you get them!! :D


Don, have you had any luck keeping Rough Greens alive for more than a few months?? Word is they are tough to keep.

[Charlet_2007]

ok well im suppose to meet with a guy today that sais his friend constantly goes out and get WC snakes and i will meet with him as well.. We may have a few garters in the mix he said what kind i don't know.. will up date more.. :)

[Garter_Gertie]

Natalie, why are you condoning some guy going out and getting WC snakes?

Or did I misread/understand your post? It sounds/reads like you're going to meet with a guy who's friend goes out and gets WC snakes...

I was under the impression you're in rescue?

I'm lost and confused here...

[ssssnakeluvr]

Don, have you had any luck keeping Rough Greens alive for more than a few months?? Word is they are tough to keep.
I had a wild caught from Kansas....not sure how well he would have done.....he committed suicide....I came into my critter room and found his head stuck between the lid and the cage....tried to escape and got his head caught.....:(

[Zephyr]

Hmm, well, of the wild caughts I own all but the male wandering are doing well with captivity.
He got out a 3rd time yesterday; my ma saw him peeking around a corner. lol
Crafty little devil; now he's in with the females. XD

[Charlet_2007]

im not his friend takes them out of the wild here and sells them for high profit off the net .. which is against the law here to sell native species...

[Garter_Gertie]

Ah, ha! Thanks! I unnderstand now. :rolleyes:

[brigitte]

wayne i have a rough green that ive had for almost a year now.

[Lori P]

What's he like? Does he eat well for you? I'd love one someday but keep hearing how fragile they are.

[Garter_Gertie]

Ah, Lori. You're in enuff hot water already. DON'T ask about the green snake! I don't know if I can think up a good xcuse Hubs will buy for that one! :D;):rolleyes::D

[aSnakeLovinBabe]

I have kept a smooth green I found in my backyard for a bit... he did alright. they need a cage that's heavily planted to feel secure. They are great because they eat insects! Possibly the most plentiful food there is. I don't recommend keeping green snakes unless you really know what you are doing, they seem to drop dead for almost no reason sometimes. I would only buy them if they were CB from a breeder who owns and bred the adults theirself... the ones you see in pet stores and most on KS are wild caught, and are usually already worn out past being saved. It is a shame that the prettier and more needy an animal is... the more it is exploited and mass murdered by the pet trade. Green Snakes, Green Iguanas, hermit crabs and Sunbeam snakes all fall into this category.

have you guys seen all the sunbeams snakes that have been wrangled lately up just because thy're pretty? Nobody really understands them... and they often die in captivity of either starvation, or when people think that the white spots that they get on thier skin is from being too wet, and dry them out... and then boom the snake develops a resp and dies! The truth is... the white spots indicate not enough humidity.

[infernalis]

A little Limon set up should work???

Lots of plants, a tree and crickets.

[Lori P]

Ah, Lori. You're in enuff hot water already. DON'T ask about the green snake! I don't know if I can think up a good xcuse Hubs will buy for that one! :D;):rolleyes::D

Oh no worries, won't be anytime soon. But I do like to learn about ALL snakes!! Just.. in case... lol

[aSnakeLovinBabe]

haha, yes Wayne, a Limon setup would be perfect, minus the earthworms :p

[Garter_Gertie]

Oh no worries, won't be anytime soon. But I do like to learn about ALL snakes!! Just.. in case... lol


Thank gods! I've time to pull another wonder outta my patoot!!! (she says as she puts on her thinking cap...)

[infernalis]

Mostly just a passing thought anyways, Limon is lots of green snake!

His attitude is moody. The more time I spend with him the more I learn about his quirks.

He has bit, and when he cocks back and lets rip, it hurts! he is a bit over 4 feet and still growing super fast, he sheds every month.

Any clues just exactly how big a Cyclophiops Major can get??

I assume the Major in it's species name means "Big".

[Garter_Gertie]

I-Yi-Yi! I'd suspect the same, Dekay... So? Can't find anything out on the 'Net regarding BIG?

Yikes! You guys may have to move to a single room and make the rest o'the house the Snake House...

[brigitte]

my rough green is very nice and has never struck. he/she loves crickets and we have we call him limeyin a very tall enclosure with LOTS of vines and limbs for him to climb up . he will take a cricket out of your fingers if you offer it to him. we havnt had any problems with ours he seems to be flourishing.

[infernalis]

Nice job with that green snake:D

[Charlet_2007]

Ok I've got a plains rat snake for adoption.. free just pay shipping.. its indigenous to Missouri so i have to abide by the laws here..


and a pair of northern pines.. the pines are my own i payed 350.00 for them.. I'll let them go for 200.00 plus shipping..
