Hi,

I'm new to these forums, and I would like to know the gender of my garter snake, Jerry. I had him/her for five years now. He/she is a wild caught snake ( I know thats bad now, but I didn't then) and he is missing most of his tale (he didn't loose it under my care), so I am really unsure of what gender it is.

Thanks

Hi Zack, and welcome to the forum.:) I'm only going off the first picture, which seems to be the clearest. I think you have a female.

Another welcome to a great forum. My guess is female also. I base it on the second photo which shows the more defined , rather than gradual taper from vent to tip of tail.

Hi Zack-- Ben and Jerry, huh? LOL! Cute. I've no clue on sexing but welcome to the forum, and as Anji says, show us the rest of the snakes too! :-)

welcome to the forum,
youŽll have to look for a girls name.
The first and the second pictures are still clear enough to give a guess.

Looks like a girl to me.
I've come up with a new theory for sexing garters:
If it LOOKS endowed, it is. XD
