    Usedto be a member, and im back!

    hey everyone, always looked around on here never posted a whole lot! I used to have a few garters but I released them back into the wild! Repticon is coming up on the first and im going to try and snag at least one garter! Any tips on keeping babies would be appreciated, the youngest snake I kept for an extended period of time was at least a yearling and I want to make sure everythings done right! thanks in advance

    Nice to see you back.
    As far as advice, smaller food and watch for complete sheds.

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

    Welcome back.
    As well as what Steve has said, here's the obvious - smaller garters can escape through smaller gaps, so if you are putting them in the same setup as the larger garters you kept before just have a quick check to see if it's secure for smaller snakes than before.
