    Fascinating.

    Could you post some links so I can better my knowledge of gartner snakes? You know, care sheets, general info, etc..........

    While I find a way to post on several forums a week, I often have problems using Google to get good info on things..........

    It looks like a smooth green snake I have never seen a garter that colour before. Are you sure?

    In order to properly care for something, you need to first correctly identify what it is.

    Have you identified it correctly? More importantly, have you figured out how to care for it?

    they released it back to care for itself
