I am so happy. Look what I am getting.
So. I think it's either a TX or an eastern. I am hoping, hoping it's a TX. But do they range as far as east Louisiana?? Is there a scale count I could do?

Re: Lookie who is gonna be mine!
The scale counts would be the same, as both snakes are sub-species of sirtalis.
T. s. annectans (the Texas) ranges across East Central Texas, West Central Oklahoma and South Western Kansas.James.

Could be either, but it's definitely no plains garter.

Oh yeah. Duh. Same species.
Well, could I assume this is a TX? Has anyone seen any easterns that look like this with that top stripe?
Thanks! She's a gorgeous one!Amanda Tolleson

Amanda, it looks like annectans to me...... but I've only ever seen them in photographs, I'm afraid.

Re: Lookie who is gonna be mine!
Well I think I will call her that.
Me too. And I even live in their range. I am making it a point to go out next season and FIND those blacknecks and TX garters. Need to take advantage of my location. lol
