california red-sided Garter

I thought that I would show you my female they are both shy so getting pics is never easy.
I've had these a while now they didnt take the move well though and I havnt managed to get them to eat yet I'll keep trying but any ideas would help I've tried them on fish and pinkies.

I would have to say that looks like some San Fran genes in there!

[Snake lover 3-25]

wow BEAUTIFUL snake!!!!:eek: :D hope they start eating again soon:)

[olive oil]

Very pretty!
Good luck on getting them to eat.

Looks like he has a little attitude:cool: He'll probably start eating when he wants to.
Great looking snake.
Do you stay around when feeding? Sometimes they want to be alone to feed. Just an idea.

Where the fish you tried, alive? If not, guppies in a clear glass bowl might spark his interest.

Beautiful snake!
Best wishes with the feeding issue.:)

[Scaley.Jade]

thats the next plan with these live feeding its not been too long and they took a pinkie before they were moved so they should be ok for now while I try the ideas as you can see shes lovely and plump really nice

i was thinking the same thing is it possible that it is a integrade/hybrid

to mee it looks like there is too much red and not enough black to be a staright up infernalis

[Loren]

yep, I agree- almost gotta be some s.f. influence in that one. Very pretty snake.

[Scaley.Jade]

i would doubt it with where it came from i think the female is just a bit of a variation from the norm the male has alot more black

[gregmonsta]

Nice :) well done on getting those.

[Loren]

Well, either way- its a beautiful snake. :)

Any luck on feeding yet? My infernalis started on guppies, then trout, then trout scented pinks. Now it takes pinks natural.

[Scaley.Jade]

no luck on feeding yet im off tosee if i can get some guppies later
