    Three Musketeers (Hooligans!)

    Hey guys!! Been a long time since I have participated in this community! Just figured I would show off my new additions. So I headed down to the famous Narcisse snake dens over the weekend. Pictures of that will follow. That is a whole new topic in its self. Regardless, my timing was a bit off and the snakes were starting to disperse. What does that mean? Snakes on the roads! Yikes! So I figured if I almost killed them, I might as well give them a good home. Managed to swerve and miss these three guys. By the way, just got my license; this was my first time driving there! Pretty impressive that I didnt squash a single snake! Well enough of my rambling... time for pictures! Nobody is named yet, anybody have ideas?

    That large female looks gravid.
    Beautiful snakes.
    A de-worming is probably in order considering their frog diet.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    Great find. How about naming them after the title of your thread... Athos, Porthos, and Aramis.

    Thats not a bad idea Kat! And Steve, theyre all boys! The females had left the den early I guess. Didnt see a single one. The big one is just stuffed with pinkies and salmon... fattie.

    Really? As in girth or length? I think he's capable of growing a good bit still.

    In the first photo it looks like 2 males and 1 female to me. I was speaking of its girth.

    Yeah actually I can see how it looked female. It is the same snake as the one in the last picture. You've got me kind of curious Steve. I'll take a closer look at him tomorrow. I'm just In love with him though. Compared to many of the others, he has lots of red. Still way less than captive strains though!

    The 'female' has great red for a wild-caught. If she is gravid you could have some good looking babies.
    I'd take a closer look at her, and if she plays ball post some sexing pics up.
