Took a few pictures of Zoe tonight before feeding her. She has just about completely outgrown that 3 in 1 hide! She still loves it though.

This guy was sunnin outside vertical on its palace tree stump with entrances throughout. When I released he slipped right in to on of its many deep crevices.

Can anyone ID?

Where are you located?

[snipstedy]

I am located in Louisiana. Sometimes I go to Baton Rouge for work. Their is a big neighborhood where it seems that in everyones back yard there is a garter (multiple sometimes). I really would like to find a Thamnophis sauritus sackenii to keep with the one I have now ( I think thats what mine is), but then I hear its better to get captive bred to have no risk with parasites. If I were to breed them I have the perfect place to release some of the babies near a brook where I caught mine, they seem to do well there.. I think they're primarily in Florida.

You do not want to release pets (or their offspring) into the wild. Sell or give them away as pets; it's a win:win situation. People can find captive bred animals without having to take any from the wild-win, and you have not put wild populations nor your individual animals at the many risks of captive release-win.
