    please help me identify my garter snake

    Good evening to you all

    I have one month since this Thamnophis purchased at pet stores (The keeping of animals and their health is very good) except that when I purchase the salesman told me it was a female Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis 08mois.
    After more research I agree with him that this is a female, 8mois can be (tell me have you think) by cons I do not agree on sirtalis sirtalis and you?
















    thank you in advance

    A photo of the top of the head will be helpful, to tell if it is
    T.sauritus or T. proximus.

    It is a ribbon, but the subspecies, I don't know. It just has that thin body and big adorable eyes that ribbons all seem to have!
