Nice, an albino checkered. Lovely snakes (the wife prefers her albino, I actually prefer them in their natural colours).

Sweet looking little T.marcianus (Checkered garter)

That link I gave you to the care sheet is a good read.

Lovely little albino checkered you have there...I have a male named Hermes. Sweet garters.

Nice little albino

Welcome to the forum family! I have an albino checkered as well, it's Hermes sister (Marnie's snake). Her name is Adira.

Welcome! Great looking snake, love the albinos. Not to be a downer, only asking because I still haven't nailed a substrate down, but what kind of substrate are you using in the pics? Looks kind of big and rough like the snake wouldn't like it, or be good for it??

Reptibark, I believe. It's perfectly fine to use, and people seem to prefer it for its looks. Some people use that and... Eco earth? Or coconut something.

I use a mix of reptibark and aspen for Adira. The reptibark helps us see her better. She just blends right into the aspen.
