Since the world of Garters is new to me, as are snakes in general, I have a few questions about their behavior.

Since this is day 2 of my adventure with a WC Garter, I'm pleased that she ate 2 nightcrawlers. I've heard with some snakes, they tend to be irritable after eating, is this true with Garters?

I'm sure it's been a whirlwind trip for her, being handled by a strange person and ending up in an unfamiliar environment. This evening she's much more subdued and appears to be sleeping (eyelids partially closed), so I imagine she's full and tired. What are their sleep paterns?

Last night she was lunging through the glass at my wife! So I assume she was a bit miffed and or hungry.

She's a hoot tho!
