William's garter snakes.

Too many? Snakes? That's weird, I didn't think those words went together.

Actually, IMO, you can have too many. And that's when you can no longer house them all properly. THATS too many.

I don't know, like more then 10..

The thing is, though..

She gets mad when I bring new ones in but doesn't stay mad long.

So, I guess I don't have a limit.

[ConcinusMan]

Yeah well when you're going out and catching them daily and keeping dang near every one...

Just saying don't overcrowd and not all will be keepers anyway. I have to "throw back" at least 2/3 of the northwesterns I find because they just won't eat.

[frostyftw]

Actually I have a limit.

That applies when I can't care of them all.

[frostyftw]

Yeah, I put back the non eaters.

I give them a week or 2 though.

[ConcinusMan]

I give them at least three, sometimes four, depending on their body mass and whether or not they are losing weight.

However, it's getting late in the year to be releasing them. They need time to prepare for brumating and get back to their den.

[frostyftw]

Okay.

I will keep that in mind.

I caught a garter yesterday. I never got around to taking a picture and uploading it.

So, I guess I will take one now. My mom said I need to let it go after the picture.

That's okay with me. I'll post a pic in a sec.

[frostyftw]

Above is the garter I caught yesterday. I'm going to release it soon.
