looks like everybody here is hibernating with their collection... lol.
I still have my garter snakes up and feeding though since they're young and haven't gone off feed yet.

Here's a pic of my male albino florida blue eastern garter. The female het albino is a nice blue color, she took 3 pinkies today but I didn't snap any shots of her. I can't wait till this pair matures.

And here's a snow red sided garter snake, right after swallowing a pinkie.... Still hungry?

Of course.

Yeah Mike I'm definately in hibernation mode, time to stay inside and watch lots of football, lol.
Thats a great pic of the snow red-sided, really shows off how clean and see thru they are.

for sure, I just wish he wasn't so rowdy, LOL. do red sided garter snakes tend to calm down when they gain size to them? both of those FL easterns need anger management as well haha.

Yeah Mike they all settle with age and handling, but males always tend to stay a little more rowdy, females get big fat and lazy which make them easy to handle.
My floridas are all expecially "ANGRY" at the world, but they are getting better in time with regular handling, especially the females, I'm sure within this next year they will be dog tame.

If shes taking 3 pinks you could probably bump her up to fuzzies, I usually bump up to the next size after they take a couple meals of 2 items, not telling you how to raise you snakes thats your business, just saying how I do it.

the fuzzies I have are too big for them, mine probably aren't as big as your pair, I saw the pics of them on your site and they're looking pretty chunky, lol.
my pair each ate 2 large pinks today, instead of 2-3 small pinkies.

I want them to get big.

your silver is looking good too
