    New member to the forum, but not to garters

    Hi I'm Michelle. I currently live in Vermont, moving soon to North Carolina. I've had a long time love for Garter snakes and kept them off and on since I was a kid. I found this forum when I was googling for how to help an injured Garter snake the other day and I have to say I'm extremely impressed with the knowledge and helpful info that the members share on here. I'll try to get a picture up of the recent rescue I found yesterday.

    Whatever you do DO NOT LISTEN TO THE GUY ABOVE. He knows nothing about GARTERS. Especially Radixs, I heard he only has like two scrubs:-)

    Welcome!

    Thanks for the welcome. I actually saved that care list to my computer so I can share with others who keep Garters.

    Yeah I know, the 2 pet stores near me insist that they can eat them. I have never witnessed a Garter nosh on insects before. lol I'm trying to upload pictures of the Garter I have now but I keep getting "Post denied. New posts are limited by number of URLs it may contain and checked if it doesn't contain forbidden words." lol

    Re: New member to the forum, but not to garters

    Welcome Michelle, I'm pretty new here myself, except I dont have much experience with snakes. As for the posting problems, seems most pepople have that. I think it might have to do with browser settings. I dont keep history or cookies etc, and I seem to auto log out every now and then from the site while I'm typing out a post. I copy save just before I post just in case.

    Thanks. I tried using the photobucket but it seems that I can't even post without photos still in the urgent forum.
