    You don't want much, do you Karl?
    I think you'll struggle to find anyone willing to sell a 'ready to breed' female tetrataenia. I will have babies in the next few weeks if you're interested. (I'm just east of Manchester).

    I'm jealous, but I'm glad we have people over in the UK breeding these fine animals. Hopefully enough can be bred that they can become available in the pet trade in the US.

    It's never easy 'going back to square one'' Karl. That's exactly what I have to do after losing a female red phase pickeringii in a freak accident, after raising her for two years from the tinyist, non-eating little squiggle. I was gutted!

    Aw, I opened the thread prepared to be jealous, but instead feel awful for you Would be hard to lose such a special female. Best of luck finding another.

    Oh. Because you know, it seems to me that, aside
    from being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal.

    Re: female sanfransisco garter.

    I have seen them pop up once in a while on the RFUK classifieds ... I've seen wo males and one female sold on there over the past year (usually people who don't know how special their charges are ).
    Try Alan Francis - http://www.gartersnake.co.uk/ he sometimes clears surplus adults from his collection.
    Keeping - 'Florida blue' sirtalis, concinnus, infernalis, parietalis, radix, marcianus and ocellatus.
