    Re: first snake

    Snakey was my first snake, I caught him in the middle of a two month drought and decided to keep him. He really grew on me. He was a tiny little guy, only 9 inches. Ad of course, after having him for about a year I had to have more.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    Re: first snake

    I got some kind of a garter snake called Kalle when I was a kid. No idea of the species, I don't think I even have any pictures of it... It escaped and we never found it :/ (any guests coming to our house checked behind the couch pillows for the snake for months every time they sat on the couch, looks on their faces were pretty priceless when they asked where my snake was and we told them it had escaped...)

    I just don't tell my guests.
    Unless it's someone I don't want in the house.

    Me too

    As for my first (and only, so far) snake, I was in Illinois, at a rest stop with my parents and grandma. I wandered down a path with a creek, hoping for some kind of snake. My favorite kind of snake at the time (still is) were garter snakes, but I'd never seen one. And when I saw that red-sided I grabbed it and couldn't let it go. Actually it was more the fact that it didn't eat mice, so I was able to convince my parents to let me keep him. I didnt mention they ate pinkies... there's a differnce right?
