Wandering Garter Sankes

[infernalis]

My wandering pair arrived on Friday, courtesy of Don. Thanks man....:D

One of them, (pictured) ate a whole pinky for me:D

The other one ate a small minnow, and showed no further interest in food.

[Garter_Gertie]

OOOOOOOOO! I like! Kind'a moncromatic. Very pretty in a brownish way. Yeah. I like!

Nice catch there, Dekay!

Do all wanderings look like that? I really like the overall dusty color. Very pretty.

Pic after it ate? Ittiz a fatty-happy lookin' kind'a kid! LOL!

[Zephyr]

Wanderings are SOOOOO variable.
I have the pair I caught which are more of beige brown with a electric yellow dorsal stripe and scatterings of yellow between the scales on the sides.
And I also have a male who's bright orange and a female with no pattern who's lavender/slate gray.

Also, Wayne. from experience, wanderings don't eat much a never get "pudgy."
Just so you don't freak out. :P

[GartersRock]

Nice Wayne!

Do you have a pic of your "patternless lavender/slate gray" girl Kyle?

[Zephyr]

Nice Wayne!

Do you have a pic of your "patternless lavender/slate gray" girl Kyle?

Can't seem to capture her color AT ALL. She is really "blue" in person....

[infernalis]

Now all I need is a couple red spotted and of course another Infernalis:D

That would about cover all the garters I am interested in having..

Well ok, until next season;)

[GartersRock]

I LUV red spotted. :D http://www.iherp.com/Gallery/88783/9418_15190_Large_7ebwkif0W3eZf4c.jpg

Nice additions and you have seen some very nice wandering garters, Don. There is not that much difference available on them in Europe....

[infernalis]

These will probably be my only pair.

That is quite the variety of wanderings Don.

Once I acquire my Red Spotted and a replacement Infernalis, I would like to focus on the snakes I already have.

When I was avidly collecting recorded media (Records, tapes & Cd's) within a few years I found myself up to my eyeballs in frickin disc's and tapes of all kinds.

Putting them in the attic and forgetting about them is not an option with pets, so I have to be smart enough to apply the brakes at the right time.

Am I blind?

Yep. Positive. And thats what everyone else says. :p Where's the blue? But it's one of those colors that cannot be captured by camera... :mad::p

Don - I like the way you sit your snakes in the grass to take a pic... adds that natural appeal!

[infernalis]

Sometimes, Natural looks un-natural:D
