    New Garter!

    Hello, everyone!
    Yesterday while doing yard work, I found this little garter at one of my client's houses. I'm almost certain that it's T. s. sirtalis but not quite as certain that it is in fact female. I looked at the tail and it seems to be consistent with a female physique, but I just want to make sure I'm right. I have her in a naturalistic set-up with some plants and rocks from the area where I found her. She also has a pond and a perch where she can bask. That area's temp. is usually around 84F and her hides are about 73-75F. The overall humidity is at an ambient 40%. I also have a much smaller DeKay Northern Brown Snake and I was wondering if I could house them together? I've put her in a separate cage for the time being.

    Thanks,
    Smitty

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