This is Tread, and judging from all of your posts I'd say he's a boy. Am I right? And can anyone tell me what kind of garter he is? Thanx!

Thamnophis sirtalis concinnus.

Thanx everyone! I thought Tread was a guy, but I wanted to be sure. As for the picture, I was doing it wrong. Here's the same picture, only better!

I hope I did it right this time. What does it mean that he doesn't have a Bullit nose?

To me females have a nose like a bullit train

Were as the male has a nose like a TGV
