    Re: Red Eastern project

    the babies could have red on them, however you might have to breed the siblings to each other to really bring out the reds. once you bring out the red color in their babies, you can then breed those to other easterns to increase the gene pool.

    Shanley - Those colors wow, and they seem to suit you so well

    I like Don's idea, what the heck, I have plenty of Scott Felzer babies to play with, why not keep a few of the offspring, cross the two reds, let Magma have a shot at a couple of the girls, and see what happens in the next half decade or so.

    I just hope someone else likes red as much as I do

    Lots of the garters around here look like yours Wayne. (I'm only about an hour away from Kyle).
    I have found several without any red as well, but I'd say the majority have it in the sides. All of Chili's babies have orange in the sides which will most likely deepen as they grow. Only one has hardly any. Chili herself has a deep burnt-orange colour to her sides.
    I'd like to see what happens if you keep breeding them together. They should be pretty critters!

    Wayne, your boy's beautiful.

    Tell'ya what I'll do to help you out... I'll hold a couple of the babies for you. Until you need them, you know? Lighten your burden.

    What are buds for? Huh?

    Shanley! You crack me up! LOVE all your color coordination! And never thought to put a cat bed in a snake enclosure - but makes sense! Poor fat mama. You go, girlfriend, you're taking the BEST care o'Sooty.

    Re: Red Eastern project

    Thoe guys are what I call "pretty potter county garters"

    the more pretty specimens I find there look just like your pair wayne... what I would do is when you manage to pair the two... hold onto the babies and grow them all up a few inches so that their true colors start to show.. then you will be able to find you pick of the litter as far as coloration goes.... and then you go from there!
