My New Snake

[RedSidedSPR]

Jesse: I love seeing pics of Red! He and Harley are finally starting to look a bit different. Looks like he's getting that Eastern male neck/head shape now, and she's starting to look more like a girly snake.

Thanks! i have a lot more pics in my "new photos!" thread, rather then post more here, as it's not my thread.

25 inches. That might seem microscopic to everyone else here, but for me, I've only had a ribbon snake before. He only got up to a foot and a half long, and 3 quarters of a centimeter thick.

Here is a picture of him that I took while he was sleeping after a day of eating. He is a lot more chubby until he can digest the worm pieces. That's why he is sleeping in his light instead of in his coconut.

I have 4 babies, and a 22 inch adult male. Not micro to me.

My male, Snakey, is only 1 ft long. He's very tiny. Even I don't find him microscopic. Good things come in small packages.

Wow, Lightning was able to find a good heatspot in the tank. He is already fully digested after eating yesterday. I think he slept on his rock instead of his coconut last night. Maybe that's why.

I think I made a mistake. He actually looks more like a common garter snake, not an eastern.

What's in a name

[snakehill]

I thought the common garter and the eastern are the same. Aren't they both T.s.sirtalis?

[kibakiba]

Yes, they are.
Though, "common garters" are pretty much just what's common in an area.For example, Fitchii and NW are "common garters" here.
