So 3months or so ago I was at a local reptile show helping out at a friends table, I took a lap around to check out what the other vendors had and came across 2.2 adult Albino Checkerd Garters. Now im not a big Garter guy, Ive had them a few times in the past and was not looking at getting more anytime soon. The vendor was getting out of the hobby and it was towards the end of the show and he offerd them to me for a great price so i took them home with me. When i got home i started looking at one of the females and found that she was gravid so i expected babies with in a few weeks. She kept getting bigger and bigger and looked miserable! Well yesterday i came home and found she had finally dropped 13 babies (12live, 1stillborn). Active little guys, a few of them have bright orange dorsal stripes like one of the males.
