A friend of mine recently found and safely relocated a garter snake. He posted the following pictures and video for identification. I think it's an Eastern, but another friend, who happens to be a herpetologist from Texas, thinks it's a checker. I've handled lots of Easterns, and am fairly certain that's what it is, but I wanted confirmation before I go telling a professional that he's mistaken. So what do you guys think? Eastern or checker?

Eastern or Checker?
People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.

Eastern for sure. Somewhere in the world there is the worst doctor in the world and someone has an appointment with that person tomorrow
