Garters at our local expo :-)

[Lori P]

Here were the only garters I saw at our local reptile expo today-- and I WANTED THEM lol!!!!!!! They are BEAUTIFUL, I think, but a little pricey (probably just pricey for me). I kept going back to them but I am getting Reed's ribbon snake and his red sided, :-), so I was a good girl and walked away...



I did spoil myself with two other snakes and will post about them in a minute as I'll be needing help!!!!

I admire your restraint!

[Lori P]

Well, and to be clear, it was $125 each... at first I thought it was $125 for both and I was jumping over people to get to them... (just kidding!!) :-) Sooo pretty tho...

Never never never!!!!
i would have bought them one second!!!

You know, when I was there, I kept wishing I had email access to post pics to you guys in case someone wanted them!! Ah well... next year will try to be more prepared...

I know how you felt, Lori. I was at an Expo here yesterday myself. I vender I know had a trio of Garters for sale. Two looked like Texas Garters. He was up front with me and said they were a cross between Checkers and Texas. Great as they looked, I had to pass. Bright red dorsal strips.

I take it you didn't have your camera with you!

Wish I had. That's a species not pictured in our care sheets as yet.

I didn't know they were that much! I hope California allows commercial breeding one day

That are some serious prices.
Allthough I do not know what they will cost overhere in Holland.
Pretty snakes!
