I know I should be perfectly happy
having two lovely new animals to get to know
but I just saw these garters on this site . . .
it's crazy, I know
and we're moving
and I really have neither space, nor the where-with-all to make space
they call them blue phase green garters
whatever
I'm drooling over the photo
there's got to be something wrong with me
I can't shake this affliction
man
to bad I can't write music
this is just the perfect subject for the blues

I wouldn't mind having some new garters. Actually, I think it would be a great idea to write a garter snake song. My dad and I can write one!

The blue phase green garters sound interesting. Can you post a link?

"Blue phase green"? I wish the dealers would use scientific names!

They are probably the same as the " green phase blue".

Aren't these light colored Florida blues (T.s. sirtalis)?

that's what they look like to me ... :)

Rhea, there were some (perhaps WC now that I think of it) on KINGSNAKE a short while ago. I believe they were like $25 or $20 ?? Also keep in mind that the Florida easterns get big in regards to garters.

best wishes,
marian

I see
I'd already talked myself out of it
I don't really want a Florida Blue
I do want a male similis
also
we're hoping to move . . .

Only "hoping to move" Rhea? I thought it was decided now. Once you've moved in and set up, then you can really start to build your collection!

today, I was re-assured that it would really happen
we are packing
I am planning
but until we get the loan approval, I'm not going there to rake precise measurements

as to my collection - it all depends on the timing
this year I may just add one or two garters
