    What real species are my snakes?

    Hello every body...First of all, I am very kind to be here and form part of this great forum...I am from Spain, so don“t be very hard with my english...JDo you? Jejee...
    I want to start my participation with one question about my snakes.
    I bought them like a male and a female of Thamnophis sirtalis ssp; but they are very diferent and I think they are different species.
    Would you tell me the specific specie nad subspecie of both?
    Really really thank you and I hope I can help you in something.

    Really? Ok, then I have to look for respective species to be their male and female...
    So, parietalis who is above the branch and radix who is in the cave, isn“t it...?
    Thank you very much friends.

    First one is a Red-sided garter (Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis) and the second is a Plains garter. (Thamnophis radix)

    Very pretty Red-sided you have there.
