I was wondering if it is normal for baby garters to have what almost looks like a "slit" down their stomach a little further up the tail than the cloaca but crossing down the ventral scales.... maybe about this long _____ on a baby about 7 or 8 inches long. Both of the two baby eastern garters that I recently posted pictures of had what looked like a grey slit down their little tummies .... I am hoping this is normal as they both had the same EXACT mark and it didnt look like it was an injury of any kind and they certainly didnt seem hurt in any way.... I took pictures I will post later if no one knows what this is or if its normal or not
THANKS!
