hey guys I am just curious it seems as I look around the site here and a few other places where people love garter snakes that the Radix seems to be the most popular choice and I was wondering why that was? I cannot really seem to find the difference between Radix and a Sirtalis, am I blind?

Re: What's with the radix's? :)
well I have read that apperantly the Radix's are more docile then the Sirtalis's and that they are one of the most heavy bodied garter snakes around, wonder if that is part of what makes them so popular. I wish I knew a website where I could buy a garter snake other then the common one.

Re: What's with the radix's? :)
nice thanks, I will see if they ship to Canada. My main concern is I want to find a breeder of many types of garter snakes that will ship to Canada.

What's with the radixes!
Let me tell you. They are just the best Garter snakes in the whole dang world. Calm, gentle, smart, wide range of colors. Good eaters and do very well in captivity. Did I mention how calm and gentle they were. Why, having a radix is like having a little slice of heaven. They are naturally curious and great eaters. The colors range from light phase, dark phase, red phase, normal phase. Green, black, brown heads. Having a radix is just about the best thing that can ever happen to a person.
Of course I am just a little bit bias when it comes to radix.
Individual results may vary. Anyone holding a radix for more than 4 hours should seek immediate medical attention.

Re: What's with the radix's? :)
I honestly do not see that Radix's are the more popular choice. I think you probably just happened to pop in at a time where you noticed a lot of Radix being discussed or for sale by coincidence.
But they ARE lovely. =D As are all garters!Amanda Tolleson
