I bought this female garter on Thursday the 30th of April. The man i bought it from advertised it as a Snow Eastern. I had to have it as i have a male Easten and 2 young Melanistic's. He lives up north so i had to wait till his mother came down this way which was the date i got it on. When i got there this is what i got. At first i thought it was another Albino Checkered but looking at it more closely i'm not sure. It is definantley an Albino of some sort. Any ideas.

Looks like a snow (Albino's often show more pattern)
Not sure if its eastern though...I guess so (?)

It's certainly not the usual albino marcianus we see. Have you tried to take a scale count? That would help to determine the species at least.
Hi lestat,
take a look here
Liophis.de » Meine Tiere Die Seite für den Schlangenfreund (http://www.liophis.de/meine-tiere)
maybe it' a radix snow, yours look like the same!

actually on the same page it looks more like the leucistic easterns on there just below the infernalis
i think so because you can just barely see some color just above where the lateral stripes would be on both these snakes and on yours

Looks like it has a yellow stripe down the side.
How do you do a scale count.
