I have finally got my first garter this weekend!
A CB female t.s.s. "florida blue" from 06.

Looked for a male aswell but with no luck.

She's been eating guppies from the day I put her in her temporary enclosure. Quite a surprise as I expected her to be all stressed out from the transport and her new surroundings.
She's lively, and pays a lot of attention to her surroundings. Moving from the basking spot to the cold area beside the water bowl.

I'm not fully done with my vivarium for her, and hopefully a him as well, but i'll post pics of the project when I'm done.

She's not tame at all, and it's not my mission to make her so. I would like to make her "handable" though. I thought about giving her a week to settle down, and then starting handling her once in a while. Is that too soon you think?
