Another snake ID

[EasternGirl]

Remember when we were all trying to ID Chris's snake Nobby? The parietalis without the red? Well...this is a pic of our new member Mark's son's snake. I think it looks just like Nobby. We are trying to ID it.... Another U.K. Northern Garter...probably Nobby's sibling...lol.

Yes...I am changing my username to "wouldn'tknowaneasternifitbitmeonthenosegirl". I did think that it looked like some of the pics that I have seen of easterns up north from here. But I thought that about Chris's snake too and that snake looks exactly like Chris's and everyone decided it was a parietalis.

i think sirtalis and paritalis are sold as Northern Garters but without knowing where they are actually from then its just a guessing game

Flippin' northern garters! Next they are going to start selling southern garters over there.

I found an online reptile shop based in the uk selling WC northern garters lol, and it made me wonder if this is where they are coming from. The site provides no scientific name or even an area of which they were caught.
