    is it a male ?????

    101_1591.jpg101_1592.jpg101_1594.jpg101_1596.jpgi got a cb11 albino from Scott f. a while back, and it looked male to me. now i am not sure if it is a male cuz i put him in with by cb09 flame today. he was flowing him all over but wen i came back later he was trying to lock up with him. so now i am wondering if it is or not cuz i have never seen a male garter do that to another male garter. just want to see what everyone thanks.

    I wish your 3rd photo was more focased but I do believe you have a male there.
    The tail stays nice and wide just past the cloaca.

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

    It's hard to tell by the photos but they both look male to me. See if you can get some better pics of the underside of the snakes. Maybe you could put them in a clear container and then take a pic of the underside.

    I'm about 99% sure its a male by looking at the tale but here are some better pic 101_1617.jpg101_1618.jpg101_1620.jpg101_1625.jpg what i'm wondering even more than that is if it is 2 males is that common for them to do that i have not seen that with snakes before

    Definitely male.

    Males will court anything, including hands, sticks, other males and worms... Well, maybe that was just Snakey... Hah.

    If I ever have a vehicle breakdown in your area I'm staying in the car until help arrives.
