For the last year I've toyed with the idea of re-homing all my non-garter species.
I finally started that process.
Tonight, 5 of those snakes left the Ranch to a good home.
I let my pair of hypo-melanistic bull snakes, pair of gray banded kings and a ball python go tonight.
My fox snakes are next to leave in a couple of days.
I will miss them all but, I want to concentrate on the best species of all Thamnophis.

Sirtalis!
People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.

Re: I must be Terminal Garter Snakes.
Sounds like and awesome idea. I know the ranch could always use more garters!
Also Steve I'm no expert, nor do I claim to be, but if I'm not mistaken, Thamnophis is the best genus....

Re: I must be Terminal Garter Snakes.
No, that sounds pretty right. But yeah more space for garters.
Probably a bit hard letting them go.
I know I've been a bit tempted to trade Fry in for a more friendlier model to make room for maybe a nice pair of female garter, but I'm finding it hard to do.2.0.0 T. s. parietalis (Marley and Sully)

Re: I must be Terminal Garter Snakes.
Just think about the space you've got for garters now - either more room for the current headcount, or a couple more large vivs for new heads.

Re: I must be Terminal Garter Snakes.
I would correct you if you were wrong but you are correct. The error was all mine. Guess I had radix on the brain at that moment.

Re: I must be Terminal Garter Snakes.
I can understand getting rid of the non Garter snakes...
I love my banana cali king snake... but she is BORING lol She is only active when she is hungry, then I feed her n she hides n sleeps for the next week!
She is nice to hold though, so chilled out n will just sit in my pocket n watch the world go by, or bite me...
I like my Thamnophis way better.3.2 T.Marcianus, 1.2 T.Sirtalis, 1.0 Zacapu, 1.0 T.Radix

Re: I must be Terminal Garter Snakes.
The very reason I came home from the expo with a concinnus baby instead of a corn...the garters were whispering to me when I was looking at the corns and kings...."Ungrateful, unloyal...how could you even think about another snake? You know you want another garter...get another garter". Lol....

Re: I must be Terminal Garter Snakes.
Yep...I'm certifiably garter addicted. Now, if I start hearing the garter voices telling me to "kill kill kill"...you guys should get concerned! Ha ha ha....
