    my new arrivals

    I knew you wouldn't even want me to say anything until I had pics
    but first the story
    my garters from Scott came pretty early
    We'd wanted a pair of normal plains, a female anerythristic plains and a fulvus
    the fulvus didn't happen, so I agreed to just take the three
    when I opened the box there were two containes - one said "males" and had two snakes in is that looked like normal plains garters
    and the other container had an anerythistic plains in it
    so I shot off an email to Scott, saying no, no, no - the normals were supposed to be a pair
    then I had a patient
    when I checked my email again, Scott had written, saying "I sent you a replacement for the one you lost last year"
    I'm going - wait a minute . . . he sent me an extra snake?
    I'm diving over to the discarded containers (it's two hours later now) and whew!
    there she was - all limp
    I put her in some water and she just floated for a while
    then I suddenly got worried that Id drowned her and I fished her out
    when I set her down on some paper towel she immediately coiled and struck at me repeatedly - she was really pissed
    her name is Spunky
    the two males are Mimo and Memo, and the anery female is Momo
    I still can't believe Scott gave me an extra snake
    anyway - pics:

    Mimo and Memo

    I love T.e.vagrans, I'm hoping to convince my parents to let me get a maritime.

    I know, I was just saying I liked T.e.vagrans, sorry for the confusion.
