I love garters I raise Florida Blue and Black Neck (mine are all silver) garters Most of them are also checkered. They have the funniest personalities. absolutely wonderful pet snakes edit: careful with fish. There is a limited list of types of fish garters can eat safely. Stay with Guppies and Tilapia to be safest. Thiaminaise is a protein in most fish that can cause serious ailments and death in garters.

Just a heads up, if those gutted silversides are smelt, you need to give thiamine supplements since they do contain thiaminase . Back in my younger days a bag of frozen smelt was like 50cents we used a lot of it to feed snakes and fish since it was a cheap something I could afford in high school. I did have an electric catfish develop neurological problems when this made a bulk of his diet.. Nobody knew this back in the sixties ! I haven't seem it sold in our Florida supermarkets lately but it used to show up during "snow bird season".

I feel like saying snakes because I really enjoy owning my Florida kingsnake and am so excited to try and breed her! But I definitely have a spot in my heart for lizards. Always love the videos Dayyan!

QOTD: Lizards are characters, but I prefer to keep snakes. Way less work! I appreciate feeding time being once a week! and there's something magic about snakes- the way they move, their inherent mystique I think. Such special creatures. I am so delighted on your behalf to see you have Red Sided Garters! One of the world's most gorgeous snakes! I will enjoy them vicariously through your videos so please keep us updated.

We got ourself a big garter project. Lake chapala from a garbage breeder. Bought 3, first didn't even made it thru the night. One that needs to be force fed and one doing ok. Took 2 more of their siblings in from someone else. Now we have 3 doing great and one that seems to need to be fed against her will forever. But all are very active goofy ladies. They love to hunt their fish. And yes, we provide B1.

I personally am a lizard person with 6 myself. I think that they have so much personality, not saying snakes don't. I do have to mention that I have never owned a snake, but wish to have one, in particular a corn snake.

Red sided garter snakes are my favorite! I would love to have a couple.

I’m fortunate enough to be able to catch red sided garter snakes down here in some parts of Oregon. I’ve found quite a few nice ones

Inferno and Sylvie are absolutely stunning! As for the question of the day: I personally prefer snakes. I just like the look of them more and find them to be more relaxing to handle. I also really like their “low maintenance” (not to be confused with low effort) care. Also just another thing which you might not like to hear but I think you’ll want to know: frog legs are often harvested extremely inhumane. Most of the time the frogs are wild caught and their legs are cut or ripped off while they are still alive :(. The frog is then thrown away to die. Obviously you should still use the legs you have now but I thought you might want to know for the future. I was really bummed out when I learned about this because I thought I had finally found a way to feed my garters some amphibians.

@Reptiliatus

Жыл бұрын

Thank you so much 🐍! Great choice and thoughts/reasons. Thanks for letting me know! That’s certainly very disturbing! I feel rather conflicted because tbh, I’d prefer to feed them something healthy rather than offer lots of rodents when someone is going to buy the frog legs regardless… tough for sure. Not a nice pickle to be stuck in.

@kellybraun7048

8 ай бұрын

Maybe with the increase in reptile food companies, someone will start breeding feeder frogs. Then the legs for one type of reptile, the rest of the frog for another, ethically raised and killed, like mice, rats, and insects are in companies supported by the reptile community. It would also lead to healthier frogs for feeding, since it would be a captive setting that could seek to avoid parasites and whatnot.

I really love this kind of videos

If and when I get back to keeping reptiles, there are several snakes that have my attention.

FRIENDS! I love their little faces so much. Garter Snakes always look so friendly to me. They are very curious and even if skittish, if you approach a wild one slowly, they might come closer themselves to see what's up with you

Dang, those fish are huuuge

These are beautiful! FYI: firstly, I've never owned any garter.. ever. I have watched a snake discovery video before where someone only fed their garter fish,worms etc. and their garter started displaying neurological issues and it ended up being because of calcium deficiency and it also had to do with the fish having too much thiaminaise that the harter just couldnt handle. Emily had figured this out and the garter began acting like a regular garter agian. So she would feed it rodents here and there instead of none or ever like the previous owner ( the owner didn't want to have a snake where they didnt have to feed rodents). Just wanted to mention it and if someone oy feeds their garters fish,worms etc. But, this could have just been that particular garter as well. But like I said before, I've never owned one so I'm obviously not experienced in any way but wanted to mention it so hopefully it could potentially prevent someone having issues with their baby. Have a great day!

I have a scorpion, tarantula, veiled chameleon, a crested and a leopard gecko, a mantis, pet mice, multible species of feeder insects. Also I am picking up a pair of rough scaled sandboas on saturday

I like lizards the best. I have a gargoyle as a pet. Garter snakes are my favorite species of snakes and I have had positive experiences with wild ones. What I'm curious about is does the social aspects of this snake effect how they interact with humans? I saw somewhere if you hand a garter to a friend,it will track you. Have you noticed this? I'm really fascinated by them.
