Pictures of our snake "Kurly"

[Kurly1]

Yes, it's Reptile Carpet. My son wanted to get it because it looks more like grass to him (well, the color of it) and he thought that Kurly would like that. One good thing about it is that it was sold with two in a pack so you always have a clean on one hand. I make sure that my son ALWAYS keeps clean reptile carpet in Kurly's cage. We clean it the same way as you KitKat. There is a cleaning solution made just for reptile carpet but I can't seem to find it in any of the pet stores I have been to. So far it is working out good.

well we will need a clearer pic. I could make a guess but id be wrong most likely.

I'll get a better picture when my son comes home this weekend. I'll take it when he is holding the snake to be sure that we get the underside of it.

wow he is beautiful. do you know what type he is? i can't make it out on the pic? and i can't remember if i have already asked lol

[Kurly1]

Thanks Lulu. I think he is a T. marcianus -checkered garter snake. Maybe you can tell me.Here is another pic that is better

[Serpentine99]

From what I can make out in the pics I beleive he is a Common Eastern Garter(Thamnophis Sirtalis sirtalis).

[adamanteus]

Yes, from the photo I think he's a sirtalis too.

[Kurly1]

Okay. I'll take your opinions over mine because I have no experience identifying snakes - lol.

Do I need to take a better picture or is this one okay? I have been wondering what species he is but it gets kind of hard looking at so many pictures. I am getting myself confused!

I'll have to agree with T. s. sirtalis as well. My initial judgment on the gender is male. Would however like to see the next photo you're posting, could be wrong.
