    but you do really need a massive attitude adjustment about the worth of garters
    my least "valuable" garter is far more interesting to live with than the most pricey snake I own

    I could not have said it better!

    Re: catching wild garters health concerns

    Garters are something very special. The real shame is, so many people(snake people also) think they are "trash snakes". I have many beautiful, large snakes and my garters put them all to shame. My experience with them has found them to be a real treasure in the snake community.
    Maybe I'm being selfish but I hope they never take off like Corns or Boas. There are many great breeders out there but there are also people who only see the dollars signs and that cheapens these special animals. Just my opinion.

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

    Yeah toad, I would definitely take advantage of that great offer from Charles. My Garters are among my all-time favourites along with my Pines & Gophers. Monetary value means nothing, it's an arbitrary number that reflects supply & demand at any given time. It should never be used a measure of the true worth to someone.

    Charles for what it's worth Easterns are fine to keep out here in Alberta. None of the regs are Canada-wide but rather dealt with on the Provincial and Municipal levels. Easterns aren't included in any of our Alberta regulations.

    I really like how this is going. That is a very nice offer, Charles. Glad you're taking him up on it, Toad
