You guys are aware that Puget Sound garter snakes only occur in WA right? I would be very suprised if there were breeding stock that predates the laws (late 70s) that make them illegal to capture and keep.
I wasn't aware that pets and things had moved, however if Bob told you the Puget Sound garters were from OR he was lying or had been mislead.
Hey all I'm new to this Forum, but I am over at www.thamnophis.com and it looks like the forums have more about BOB over there. Check out this link/post prior to buying these "blues" from him.

Just so ya all know, I'm not bashing anyone, just posting what has happened to others.
Good luck.

I couldnt find anything on any Govt sites, but it sounds to me like its a no-go from the quick searches i did.
