My son just bought a male Albino Checkered Garter about two weeks ago at the Hamburg Reptile Show. There was only one there and my son paid $55.00 for it. To much in my opinion, but he loved it and he had his own $$ to spend. I talked with a friend of mine who said that he's seen them go for as little as $25.00. As Ed mentioned, it depends on the time of the year ........ supply and demand I guess.

They are VERY nice in coloration and their pattern. We've been feeding our's Rosie Red feeder fish and day old pinkies. He really hammers the crap out of both.

As for handling, well for now it acts just like a young snake ....... spastic! It is nice because it's diurnal and you can enjoy seeing it out during the day.
