Melissa Kaplan's Herp Care Collection Last updated August 17, 2002 Garter Snakes An overview of their natural history and care in captivity. Natural History Garter snakes (genus Thamnophis ) are one of the most common of snakes. Found in a variety of habitats, they are often the first snake a youngster sees and catches. Varying according to species, garters are generally striped against a plain or checkered background color. Often delicately or subtly colored, even those with vivid red or yellow stripes or yellow ventral scales are quick to blend in with their background in the wild. Living between 3 to 10 years in captivity, these snakes generally do not grow to any great size, reaching about three feet with a very narrow girth. (Click here for information on the natural history of garters in general and the plight of the endangered San Francisco garter in particular.) Garters rely primarily upon sight when hunting, "hearing" (sensing ground vibrations), taste and smell, the latter two combined in use with the Jacobson's organ located in the in roof of the mouth. They are quite agile, a trait which also enables them to successfully capture prey. They encounter their prey while moving through their territory during the cooler parts of the dayearly morning, late afternoon and early evening.

Before You Buy By David Flack OnLine Store Breeding ... Album Quick Find Order Now Home Contact Us Site Map Every exotic pet has some specialized care needs. Even common small pets may require more care than thought. Before buying any new pet, know what sort of committment you are making. To do this, learn all you can first. Otherwise, it'll be impossible for you to to make a responsible decision and and you won't be able to honestly answer these three questions: Will this new pet and you make a good match? Animals have habits and behaviors based on that critter's own uniqueness. Examples include sleep cycles, activity levels, need for affection and many other factors. A strong human/pet bond will only develop if these are compatable. Knowing an animal's habits and behaviors is important. Are you are willing and able to provide the best possible care? Some animals have simple care needs, but others - especially exotics - require a lot of time, effort, space and money. Knowing what an animal will need - and being honest with yourself about your ability to provide the necessary care - is extremely important. Do you really want this critter?

They encounter their prey while moving through their territory during the cooler parts of the dayearly morning, late afternoon and early evening. Garters, due to their small size, are quick to heat up and cool down. Like most reptiles, garters warm up by basking in the sun. It may be on a rock or perhaps on a branch overhanging water. Garters can function during cool weather (down to 16° C/60° F) and in fairly warm weather (up to 34° C/93° F). They strive to maintain their body temperature range between 22-32° C (72-88° F), with their optimum range being 29-30° C (84- 86° F).

74. Project Wildlife Q What should I do about opossums or skunks that hang Can we keep it as a pet?A No. It is AGAINST the law to have ANY wild animal or bird as a pet. http://www.projectwildlife.org/faqs.htm

FAQs Q: If I touch a baby bird will the mother abandon/reject it? A: No. This is usually true for mammals because they have a very good sense of smell. Most birds have a poor sense of smell and will sometimes even accept "foster babies" of the same age in their nests. Q: A: It is most likely skunks feeding on the grubs in the soil. In the larval stage these grubs eat the roots of grass and other garden plants. To get rid of them go to your local nursery or home center and ask for "beneficial nematodes." Apply them according to the directions and this biological control should eliminate both the grubs and the skunks. Q: What should I do about opossums or skunks that hang around the house or actually come in through the pet door.? A: Stop leaving pet food outside or near the pet door! Q: How can I keep migrating ducks from taking up residence in my pool? A: Q: I have birds nesting above my front door and they are making a mess. What can I do? A: Wait until the babies have fledged. Then devise some sort of barrier (i.e., rolled chicken wire) to prevent future nesting. DO NOT disturb the nest!

Susan Follow-Up Postings: RE: How to encourage skunks to move on? Posted by: NJ Zone 6 ( My Page ) on Wed, Jul 17, 02 at 12:52 Hi Susan, I read this about deterring skunks: Place a radio near a known skunk den and keep it on loud during the day. Wait until the animal has begun their nightly foray and locate all entrances and exits. Block all except one and use repellents or frightening strategies to scare the skunks out. To be certain the animals have left, sprinkle flour at the exit and watch for footprints that lead away from the opening. When you are sure the animal is gone, securely close the opening. Note: Make sure it's not a mother with babies, and if so allow extra time (days) for them to leave the area! RE: How to encourage skunks to move on?
