Biggest Garters

[guidofatherof5]

My favorite Eastern gal..... She's rather big, and eats adult mice (F/T) if you just look how broad her face is you can see she's a big girl.

Wayne, I love that snake. I'm glad she's with you.
She looks like she has a great attitude. She better or else someone could get hurt.

She is a darling, the day I found her she bit me when I first picked her up, but I think she likes the free food, the belly heater and peaceful surroundings.

Has not ever tried to bite again since.

It's called contentment.

Well, here are my two biggest snakes, althought I had a really hard time capturing their real size. The flame is just over 3 ft long and the puget is just a smidge shorter than that.

Those are biguns.^^^ I can't get over how much that puget (at least I think it's a puget) looks like a big 'ol concinnus. Only the colors are different.

I have a huge concinnus also.She is at least 3.5 feet.She just had a whole 4 babies 2 days ago.lol

A few years before my big girl died, she popped out 54! Around 40 made it beyond a year old.

She had about 20 stillborns a few days before she died. But hey, she conceived at around 20 years old. Never did get a single slug from her all those years but only got a few litters in all that time.

I ended up taking those last 40 babies of hers and I released them right where I found their mother. To this day, the place is still loaded with lots of very big concinnus. My new big girl was found in the same place. Who knows, it's possible the new big girl is one of those babies!

[ConcinusMan]

Funny though. I have found gigas populations and even got out and caught and released some. Never saw one as big as the concinnus and infernalis I have found in the wild.
