    Re: help with identifying this snake

    James makes a good point about the parasite load. It sounds like you got a sweet deal.
    Take the money you saved and get a fecal float done to make sure it's clean.
    We've had a number of people pass by the forum and some regular members who have had these snakes die.
    Most of these snakes are wild caught and exported to where ever. They usually don't get any Vet. care before they are sold.

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

    Re: help with identifying this snake

    What Steve says is one of the most responsible and cost efficient things you can do as a snake carer. It is your duty now to look after the health of your companion and the fecal test does not take much. Please do!

    Actually, you mentioned getting this snake when you were young. Do you still have it?
