    Jesse's garter snakes

    Thought it was time to make a thread for my snakes, instead of making a new thread for every new thing they do...

    Here they are.

    Spooner
    My first snake.
    Self-caught at Spoon River, 21 inch male red sided garter snake.
    Bit me 100 times at first, but is now a very nice snake.


    Smoke
    Few months old baby male anerythristic, 8 inches, red sided garter snake.
    very, VERY, sweet snake. Personality-wise, my favorite snake.


    Red
    Few weeks younger than Smoke, 7 inch long ery/flame eastern.
    Very calm, sweet snake, but won't hesitate to bite you if he feels like it.
    Coloring up to a very, very nice red. Looking forward to seeing him as an adult.


    Whats-his-face. (Haven't thought up a name yet. Ideas welcomed.)
    My newest. he's a red spotted garter, but his dad was an "anery" blue concinnus... this guy has a very blue belly, and as he matures, he may even become an anery. No idea what will happen... mystery gene.
    He's younger than all, but as big as Red (7 inches).
    He's a very bold little guy, always sleeps out in the open, and has no fear of me.

    Nice snakes Jesse and equally nice photos.
    Love the first one of Spooner. That would make a great poster print. Sam's Club is about the cheapest I've found.

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

    Thanks, I thought of that!
    It's ridiculously hard to get those close ups with my camera, so I'm proud with that shot.
    I'll look into Sams Club... although you need a membership.

    Re: Jesse's garter snakes

    here's an idea

    maybe a seperate section of the forum where we can make threads just for our snakes? like a Members Snakes forum to make threads like Kantar's Snakes and katash's Snakes ect. So far only place I notice this happening is the welcome lounge

    Well, most people just make it in General Talk, but I've thought a separate section would be cool.

    I love Spooner's facial markings, they look a lot different from the one's on redsideds here.

    1.1.0 Streptopelia capicola

    Yeah, don't know why. He's different. Less red too. He's from Illinois if that makes a difference.

    Indeed. He'll be shedding soon, so he'll be even redder.

    I know. He has a very purposeful look.

    Well yes, that's what happens when there's no sunlight.
