We had the unexpected opportunity to acquire some GPTs for a very good price last Sat, that we just couldn't pass up. There were three available, a bigger orange one and two yellows. Originally we were just going to get two of them and I wanted the orange one for sure but then couldn't chose between the two yellows, so my husband said that we should just take them all. We figured that we can keep them around six months to a year, get them sexed and then sell one or two of them, which would pay for the one we keep or even a bit of profit on them.
At least that's what we told ourselves to justify getting them, we will have to see if we can bear to part with any of them when the time comes!

I used my ugly yellow gloves while briefly handling them but they were actually calm and didn't attempt to strike. The yellows were very calm, the orange one does have a bit more of a temper. But even s/he wasn't bad at all.

The Orange one.

I haven't been on in a few weeks and this is why:

This is my first and brand new grandbaby: Salomae. She was born on June 25th, 7lbs, 15 ounces and 21 inches long. Had Mom in labor for 28 hours after being induced. We went to visit in Texas for two weeks and just came back last week.

My nephew wants an albino cornsnake, I know they are a dime a dozen but does anyone here keep them or can reccomend where to get a nice one , he won't handle it and I will likely at some point end up with it:-)

How old is he? Sounds like the cool factor as a reason to have it. Let him enjoy your garters. A dime a dozen but not necessary if you are just going to have to care for it in the end. Not fair to you or the snake. Just my opinion, no offense meant.

[Saji]

He's 15 and it is the cool factor, the colors and such and the countless morphs. I am trying to get him interested in Garters. I personally love corns but its just not my thing. I will have to expose him more to my Radix and take baby steps.
