    Meet my two new Red Spotted Garters

    Hi!

    Rhea (Drache) and I went to the White Plains Expo last Sunday and I came home with these guys (as well as two others, more posts and pics to share).

    I have named the female Sage but I need a name for her beau. Any ideas guys?zpfile001.jpg
    This is his pic. The picture doesn't do him justice. That stripe down the center is actually a very pretty bright green.

    They are eating machines. Little piggies. They ate 8 pinkies today and had 6 pinkies the day before yesterday.

    So fellow forum members, I need a name for my male. I hope to get babies someday from this pair. Any ideas?

    Iknow what you mean by the color, my male concinnus's stripe is almost like a glow stick green after a shed against the blue black body! I've grown fond of his curious ways.
