Finally after browsing through all my dark, bleached, and blurry pictures, I managed to salvage these few:
My first garter, the axanthic Arakis:

Arakis' first date, the snow radix Shai-Hulud, she's much bigger than him now:

I guess Arrakis has two r's.
I've learned not to name garters until they grow some;
green Olive looks now more like a red-brown kalamata olive,
Tat used to be Bone, but not anymore.
Arrakis was Patina, and then lost that blue-green color stripe.
Pickle was Mocha, when he looked a very rich, dark brown.
Now he looks very close to Olive.
Go figure.

Nice!

Your Iowa, "Tat" looks a lot like my "Amy" looked when HE (yes, He) was much younger.

Now, at two years old he looks... "wow"

Very nice snakes you have there. Arakis is gorgeous!

Arrakis & Shai-Hulud came from Jeff, the rest from Scott.

Only the het hypo ones are related to each other.

Arrakis is a tiny bit gravid, I can't wait to be surprised.
