This site is awesome. I came here only wanting to know one thing at first and then the addition set in. Lol the people here are the best ever. Its not just a forum its a huge family. Its about time that someone sees this awesome forum cause then maybe people would understand more about garters and wouldnt hurt them and just sit back and enjoy the goodness they have and the amazment that they show us. You guys are awesome and if it wasnt for you all then I wouldve known what to do with Pheobe and her delivery and I wouldnt have the 3 beautiful growing eastern babies that are here with me now. Keep up all the great great work guys. Thank you again.

Here is a good thread...it has some really nice pics. I don't think the second garter is ID'd properly though...I don't think that is an eastern, they usually don't have orange dorsal stripes. Is it a radix?

i saw that, dont even have to look at the link...it is sirtalis, probably annectens...sirtalis doesnt always mean Eastern

T.radix doesn't range in Arkansas and only in the panhandle of Oklahoma according to Rossman, Ford and Seigel, The Garter Snake-Evolution and Ecology
Those specimens were found in 3 different counties along Arkansas's western border.
