    Alright guys, I'm in a pickle...

    As you all know, this year I will be performing my science project on possible thermoregulation, socialization, and cognitive/memorization abilities in garter snakes. However, I'm finding it EXTREMELY hard to track down some one who can provide me with very young snakes. So I've decided to try and use my own snakes. However, I'm afraid none of my snakes have bred/are old enough to have bred, so I need some help. Can any one here provide me with a 1.1 pair of Thamnophis radix radix, if possible? Of course, I'll pay for shipping and whatnot, but is there any one out there that can catch these/has a pair to spare? Thanks.

    Well, from what I've heard from casual convo on this site *I blame James :P * apparently radix are the spring from which all other garters sprung... Radix kinda makes sense... So to apply for other species of garter I'd want to use an ancestral relative. Plus I'll get big litters from big radix, I'm gonna need around 10.10 to do the whole project.

    Kyle, I did indeed say this. But understand that this is my belief, and not a statement of fact.
