Stefan's garters

[guidofatherof5]

Looks like for the most part they are putting on some size.
Do you know what's going on with the shrinking male vagran? Has he been off food for awhile?

Not to change the subject but I'm still stuck on, and amazed by that mark. The "mark of the snake" on a snake. Don't see it? try this:

Well that's why I don't bother with attaching to posts in forums. Doesn't work half the time.

Oh well. Back to good old reliable imageshack hotlinking:



If it was mirror image, it would look a lot like a dollar sign $

He was off-feed for a very short while, but that's not the reason. The only change in the diet, has been towards more mice and less fish. I suspect that something was different when I weighed him last time. He might have been close to shedding and I definitely remember him defecating relatively soon after being weighed. With one of my females, the difference a few days before shedding and a day after, was around 20 grams, if I remember correctly.

This time, it was relatively soon after he had shed (not even halfway through a cycle) and it was an entire week since any of the snakes had eaten.

That's something you need to take up with the new owner.

Hmmmm..... I beginning to think you like Vagrans, Stefan.

[Stefan-A]

Is it that obvious?

Well, the two snakes I just added to the list were born here, they're not new acquisitions. The yearling male is the one I kept from last year's clutch and the juvenile is the one born this year. I've been trying to find it a new home since April or May.

In your opinion which garter is the easiest to get in you part of the world? Which garter do you think one is being bred the most?
