Re: Baiting snakes
They look great, Have you tried to hold any. How close can you get. Will they allow any touching? Some of my wild radixes will allow me to touch them but a can't pick them up, yet.

They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

Re: Baiting snakes
LeAnn and I have it made, especially this time of the year. They have been pretty relaxed so far, don't get too excited when I pick them up, but don't handle them too much, they are wild animals after all. Sometimes I just can't resist.
Cool and rainy today so I dug out the old "bait lamp" and turned it on. Will see if anything shows up this afternoon. The camera is charged and the wife doesn't suspect a thing (yet).

Re: Baiting snakes
We sure do! I love having a place where the garters choose to hibernate just so that I can see them emerge in the spring and congregate in the fall.

Re: Baiting snakes
I remember when I found this thread. It was in an off season. I read every post and looked, with great anticipation to every page. I was captivated. Glad to see the viewing season has returned.
