 Thamnophis marcianus - Terrarium inrichten
Thamnophis marcianus is afkomstig is uit zuidelijke staten van de VS en Midden Amerika.
Zorg bij de inrichting van het terrarium ervoor dat aan de basisvoorwaarden wordt voldaan: minimaal één goede schuilplaats, een waterbak die groot genoeg is om helemaal in te kunnen liggen en een geschikte plaats om te zonnen.
Houd de bak, zoals bij de verzorging van andere waterslangen kurkdroog, hetgeen bij Thamnophis marcianus heel toepasselijk is aangezien ze van nature in droge graslanden en woestijnen worden aangetroffen.

(Thamnophis has a single or undivided anal scale, while Nerodia has a split or divided anal scale; there are few other differences between the garter and water snakes.) Adults generally are about 16 to 20 inches long, with exceptional giants over 44 inches in length.
The very narrow head gives the snake a distinctive appearance, especially when combined with the multiple rows of brown spots over the back, and it is not likely to be confused with any other garter—or water—snake in the country.
The middorsal stripe is yellow to cream, while the lateral stripes are whitish to pale yellow and very narrow, seldom more than one scale wide; the lateral stripes are on the second scale row to the back of the body, the third row on the front part.

Following the summary of KUCH (1998) this is the first description of a keratophagy in garter snakes of the genus Thamnophis.
Based on my observation I think keratophagy at least in the genus Thamnophis is only the accidental swallowing of an object, that is or has been in contact with the food.
Because the genus Thamnophis is very often kept in terraria, it is possible that there exist some unpublished observations about keratophagy.
