Re: some recent finds
Hey, I live in Colorado as well. I recently caught a wanderer, and it turned out to be pregnant:

So if you're not sure so far of the sex, keep an eye on it. You could look in on it one day, and you have seven more!
I also found a gigantic garter girl the other day out in the boonies that was so obviously pregnant, it was about to pop!! I let her go. I think its garter season here in Colorado.

Re: some recent finds
very pretty red-sided!
It was T.radix (I think - or could have been elegans) that got me started in the whole herp thing 48 years ago in the Denver area. I have great memories of Colorado.Michael Smith
