By the way a shipment of two packages containing flames was stolen in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area.

Here's the Wisconsin herptile laws: http://www.mpm.edu/collect/vertzo/herp/atlas/herpregs.html

They state that garter snakes can be taken in any amounts. BUT I don't think that means you can take packages off someones front porch.

Two adult 1.1 flames plus six babies were ripped off. I hope they don't end up dead in some dumpster.

The male had a chopped tail and I have close up pictures so if you see them for sale let me know.

I am happy to say that most of my snakes made there way into good hands.
