    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    Hi Eduardo and Anker! Welcome to the forum!
    However I think Anker is actually a ribbon snake rather than a garter, T. sauritus sackenii I'd say. I had one that looked just like yours.
    Too many snakes! 15 species and counting. 2.2 plus Crested geckos 2.2 Gargoyle geckos 0.2 Chihuahua 2.1 evil cats.

    Greetings .... although I have to say that, considering the location and the large parietal spots, that is a T.proximus probably rutiloris or diabolicus from what I could find to compare.
    Could you get us some good photos of the head and close up body shots?
